Resistol RideSafe Western Hat Helmet

Love this helmet for my son. He gets compliments on it all the time, and it gives us piece of mind that his head is protected.

It kept the sun out of my eyes, has an easy-to-use size adjuster, and was comfortable. It took a little time to get used to the brim and not hit things with it, especially my horse. But, she shouldn't be that close anyway.

I love this helmet. So many people asked me if it was really a helmet. It fits better than my other helmet and I can wear it all day long and I am not a hat lover.

Love this hat helmet so much I bought one for my husband. I didn’t need to wear sunglasses! The fit is very comfortable.

Very bundlesome. Haven't decided whether to keep it.

Loved but we need and ex large and the biggest size is large.

Great product. Can’t believe it hasn’t been copied yet!! Best western hat/helmet on the market. Don’t have pic of it yet but it looks great.... much better western than traditional English helmet!! Not as pretty as a good western hat but has big advantage of protecting your head and never goes flying off in the wind:)’. Highly recommend the investment ....wish they made it in a soft light gray color!

It fit well and feels nice. Comforting to know it’s a protective helmet but has the look of a western hat. Let’s face it — any other helmet even if called a “western helmet” is really just an English helmet with a different color pattern on it. They don’t look right with a western saddle. This helmet actually looks western. I put a thin scarf around the oversized hat and part and it helped to diminish the somewhat klunky look of that part. But I love it for giving a western look but giving the confidence of knowing it’s a helmet.

Bought two, one for husband and one for me. Fits well but runs hot. Much more comfortable than traditional helmet and more sun protection.

I am at an age where I have to be very careful about getting too much sunlight.

The stable where I ride requires all riders to have an approved horseback riding safety helmet.

Although the price seemed a little steep ($250.00), i went ahead and ordered the Resistol RideSafe Western Hat Helmet.

I am glad I did. The helmet meets industry standards for riding helmets and offers the same sun protection as a traditional cowboy hat.

I wear a size 7 and the size I ordered was for 7 to 7!/8. The hat fit perfectly.

After riding, I sometimes forget I am wearing a safety helmet and not my regular cowboy hat. I would definitely recommend this hat, but make sure you order the correct size, as the hat is not very adjustable in regards to fit.

I purchased this helmet to trail ride and show Western classes at open shows. After witnessing a co-competitor be thrown in a Western class and sustain a concussion, vanity took a back seat and wisdom moved to the forefront. I use my true cowboy hat for halter and showmanship, but the Resistol Ride Safe is worn in my rail classes. The added plus is that the brim provides some sun protection for trail riding. While the design of the hat is not as "pretty" as a traditional cowboy hat, Resistol has done a fairly decent job in making this helmet as appealing as possible. Barrel racers have brought the need for a helmet in Western gear to the forefront. I believe that you will see more movement in that direction when it comes to Western helmets. This one is a good start.

Fits and looks great!

Gave this as a gift and my daughter-in-law loves it.

Nice hat, poor customer service selecting size. Looking to add a hat band and dress it up. May be unable to purchase a band due to large band size. Would have preferred it in brown. Can't wait to use it after the snow goes!

This is a Christmas gift for my wife. It looks good and not clown like. At 70 years old she rides western on gated horses and saw this hat. Overall quality and design looks right and should help with sun protection in outdoor arena and trail rides.

I always head protection when riding my horse, and this western helmet fits the bill perfectly when riding western. I do not and will not take any chances, especially at the age of 79. I just love to ride on a trail behind my property, and one just never knows what could pop from behind a bush and spook even the most laid back horse.

I used measurements of [other brand] hat, which I was fitted for. Equiv=XXS. But sizes did not line up. Then used a tape, was right between 2 sizes?! Half inch difference between XS and Small, I am right in that gap. Given hat padding typically smooshes down, and given the XXS slipped side to side even though it pinched front to back, I tried the XS (after biting return shipping for the 1st hat). Also too small, pinching severely in front forehead, but rocking terribly from side to side. Another return shipping fee. Got a 3rd, in Small. It STILL has pinch in forehead and rocks side to side. I stuffed sides w/ 3/4 INCH FOAM PAD on EACH SIDE of the hat in order for the hat to not rock and stop slipping back (tipping up) when cantering. Other concerns: Brim very hard, wonder will it bend on impact in a fall? If fall, price point for replacement too high. Black felt, already getting dusty.Despite issues, nothing else like it, SO MANY people don't wear helmets; Trying to set example!

We got all kinds of compliments at my daughter's last gaming show
