I'm in the market for a good brand name helmet. Any certain brands or styles you scooter veterans prefer? What websites or stores do you suggest? Thanks for the help everyone!

Depends on your head shape, different brands or even models are made for different shaped heads.

always go to a store to at least try on the brand you are looking at, you can buy online cheaper but you don't know how it will fit and when you are talking about a helmet, fit and comfort are important.

I don't know good vs bad brands but the only way I'll buy a helmet is go to the store and ask them if I can ride it around the block. Since I have to wear prescription glasses I need a helmet that will have good airflow around the face meaning not much air directed to the eyes.
I have a helmet but it's a little too big for what it is, came with bike.

If you are going to wear a helmet, you might as well cover your face.
I usually stick with a MX helmet (I have a few), sometimes my full face motorcycle helmet.
