OK, 'Nando,
This is an argument I cannot confound. Also, David's thought of an unusually thick padding makes sense.  Best, Michael |

Well, if this is a helmet to specificaly protect you from falling objects, thick padding or, better say, thick stuffing, is an inherent detail.

Duly noted, 'Nando,
 One argument consequently leads to the other. Best, MIchael |

Not ALL helmets have to have eye holes...
