What's the difference between a male and female ski helmet (this is not a joke question)?

There's no gender specific motorcycle helmet, so I'd guess nowt other than cosmetics.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Probably just sizing. And flowers.

@WASHOUT, loads of differences.
Most female helmets have fur somewhere on the inside. Nice.
Most female helmets have curlicue writing on them. Unecessary.
One female POC helmet has bling on it. Pointless. Unless you have a Bogner jacket.
The soft thing on the chin strap is usually softer than a male helmet. Rule 5.
In terms of shape, performance, fit, there's nothing in it.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

@WASHOUT, based on my research at the EoSB this year trying on over 100 helmets, there does seem to be a sizing difference, i.e. within the same brand, a mens medium is larger than a womens medium.

Ok, I have taken a punt on a new "womens" sweet protection trooper 2 in blue size ML for £37. Fingers crossed it's the same size as men's.

Go by the circumference measurement. 'Medium' means nothing

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

Pony tails are common in women's cycling road racing - not so common in men's road racing
