Of course, you can only wear it when it's cool and you're not doing anything...
...'cause if you sweat and it gets wet, it turns into brown oatmeal-like mush.

Yeah, the "waterproof treatment" doesn't give me a warm and fuzzy feeling. It's still cardboard.
It's an interesting idea, though. I like the head scan as part of a fitting...sure is better than generic head-shaped helmets. _________________ Suppose you were an idiot.
