UN peace-keeper chic

For some time now I've been on the look-out for a new bicycle helmet. Until recently I'd been struggling to find what I want; something hopelessly dorky and vaguely reminiscent of what a UN peacekeeper might wear.
At long last, my search is over. I am the proud owner of a Bern Watts lid which I'm so besotted by/with I find myself wearing indoors (earthquakes can strike at any moment).
It's clunky & not very breathable but still right up my strasse. I opted for the gunmetal grey color (below) but it's also great in white for the full-on Italian cop look. I've no idea if any of my readers are skaters/snowboarders (hands up!) but I'm told it's also ideal for those rad pursuits.

Available from Evans Bicycles in Chiswick as of last week
