He wore it all day, even to other stores after we bought it. He couldn't wait to get outside and play baseball.
I probably could have done better with the shot - I don't like the lighting of his face under the helmet. But this is about as good as it gets since this is what it's like trying to get him to hold still.
But not the details of how to wear them.

Giro Xen saves my day. It's a bit difficult to tell, but the arrows point to 3 through & through cracks in the helmet's body. Better it than my dome.
Angel Nieto Roldán (25 January 1947 – 3 August 2017) was a Spanish professional Grand Prix motorcycle racer.

Paul Hatfield was one lucky Marine. Thanks to an altered birth certificate, after boot camp at Parris Island, he spent his 16th birthday on Guadalcanal, wearing this helmet. Serving under Chesty Puller, he was considered for the Medal of Honor. Later, during the assault on Cape Glouchester, Hatfield was hit by shrapnel which entered the front of his helmet. His life was spared thanks to the shrapnel glancing off the liner and exiting through the side.

Preparing for my new adventure in the UK requires a bicycle. So I went out and bought myself a helmet (the nicest one I could find) and a wee basket for the front of my little steed. Looking forward to getting around on 2 wheels rather than 4 although I know I'll miss my little bubble car alot!
Helmet crests - small heraldic sculptures attached to the top of a helmet - were used to identify armoured combatants in medieval tournaments. The point where the crest was laced onto the helmet was concealed by a torse (a padded cloth ring in the wearer's heraldic colours), often in combination with a mantle (a drape over the back of the helmet in the same heraldic colours) which helped to prevent the metal of the helmet heating up in the sun. This crest demonstrates the technique described in Cennini's 15th century artist's handbook. The basic shape is constructed in light weight leather - which can be heat hardened - and stuffed with straw, then coated with gesso and more detailed decoration added. This shows the form stitched together and stuffed.
