That Specialized helmet has to be the ugliest lid I've ever seen. I think I'd rather have a head injury.

The toolchest is nice but not really cheap- more a good price for a pretty flashy design. Quality chests can be had for less- Hardcastle, US Pro etc all have solid inexpensive products, and they're mostly the same designs as each other (my last one is a hardcastle and is literally the same chest as gets sold under about a dozen brands at up to twice as much)

@tthew, as someone who has suffered a life changing head injury... first I laughed, then I saw the lid and bloody hell, I think I agree!

I think it achieves its success at preventing injury by stopping people going outside whilst wearing it lest they be seen.

I was trying to think what the specialized helmet reminded me of and then it came to me...

That Specialized helmet looks like it's wearing a helmet. Does that make it double gooder?
