Helmet

Among all the styles of hats, one can distinguish one, the wearing of which consists of one advantage - this is a hat-helmet. This cap covers not only the head, but also the back of the head, neck, depending on the model, can warm the shoulders, back and chest. Simply put, only the face remains open.

One of the main advantages of a helmet both for children, and for adults - ease in putting on. The kid himself will calmly cope with this, while the parent will be sure that the child will not mess up anything and, due to inexperience, will not go out in the cold with a bare nape or bare neck. For men, such a hat is a convenient and practical accessory that allows you to easily protect your chin and neck from prickly frost and wind.

For young ladies, a hat-helmet, firstly, solves the issue of the safety of the hairstyle. Volumetric options do not crush and do not confuse hair, in addition, a beautiful armhole for the face goes to almost everyone, since it looks like a scarf worn on the head. Secondly, you do not need to pick up a scarf to the helmet - the neck is already securely wrapped. This removes the question of creating a harmonious kit. Since the helmet is adjacent to the face from all sides, you can choose one successful shade that emphasizes the advantages of appearance, and not worry about other color nuances.

The hat sits very reliably, even if it is moving very actively, and you don’t need to worry that at the most inopportune moment the headgear will fly off your head. This is especially unpleasant when active, for example, riding a snowmobile. If a gust of wind rips an ordinary hat off your head, it is most likely not possible to find it. With a helmet this will not happen, because it is so popular among lovers of activity.

This headdress model is suitable for babies from birth, as it perfectly protects the baby’s delicate skin from external influences. These helmets are sewn from delicate delicate fabrics: linen, viscose, cotton, shirts. As a rule, the seams of such hats are located outside, and the half-free style is softly wrapping the baby’s head, but not tight.

They are divided by the level of heat: from light models for early autumn and late spring, which can also be tucked under a warmer hat, to completely sunken ones, made of thick wool or fur. Children's helmets are decorated in different ways: they sew ears (cats, foxes or a teddy bear), fur or thread pompons, make appliqués, embroideries on them. In principle, both a children's and adult hat-helmet can have an additional lining, for example, fleece, for added comfort and coziness.

Another interesting category of such hats is funny hats. We have already said above that this can be an imitation of a knight's helmet, a tankman or a pilot, even a Viking headdress - then knitted tight horns crown the hat. Helmets are popular that turn their owner into a minion or some cute little animal, for example, a giraffe, deer or moose.

If we talk about thin options, for temperatures from plus five to zero, or those that are worn under a warmer hat, the following fabrics are taken:

• Natural cotton or linen;
• Thin knitwear
• For children - a thin fleece without lining.

This hat is also called comic - It fits your head tightly and is well suited for extra protection in severe frost. Such comforters are also worn on children so that their head does not sweat under a woolen or fur hat. Thin helmets are also worn at that time of year, when the time has not yet come for a too warm hat, but you already want to cover your ears from the wind.

Warm helmets can be sewn from multilayer or thick fleece, as well as from wool: alpaca, angora, camel or merino. Such a hat can be more voluminous, and so that it fits snugly on the contours of the face, an elastic tape, a special knitting or a pulling drawstring are used.

But there are also warmed models in the manner of a snood that are more suitable for adults - they are somewhat behind the face, while protecting the ears and delicate skin of the neck.

Designers offer the widest range of colors for helmets. For young children, these are gentle, neutral tones: beige, pastel blue and pink, for older children - all the riot of colors! Helmets are plain or two-tone, striped or checked, with prints for boys and girls.

For men, such hats, as a rule, have a classic color: white, black, khaki, blue, red. Young ladies are available all the variety that is found on the market of hats.

Sports lovers will like bright options: light green, orange, neon pink, those who prefer a calmer color scheme will find snow-white, powdery-beige, gray and chocolate models. A combination of several shades looks interesting yarn of the same color, as well as the ombre effect - when the color changes from more intense to pastel.

First of all, this is a brand like Kivat. The company specializes in children's helmets, offering a large size range, a lot of color variations and styles.

Another good company is Lassie by Reima. Reima is known to millions of parents as a manufacturer of excellent jumpsuits, and caps under this brand are of excellent quality and aesthetics.

Finnish brand Kerry He also established himself as a reliable manufacturer of children's clothing, the creation of which the company is suitable for, based on the fact that even in the cold winter the baby was comfortable and calm.

Great hats, helmets are also sewn by Huppa, Molo, Oldos, the Ukrainian brand Beezy and the Russian Kotik. Parents say that they often buy both outerwear and a hat-helmet of the same brand, it is easier to get into the same color scheme, as well as to be sure of quality. Note that the baby hat can be worn for two, or even three seasons.

The best reviews about a hat model like a helmet can be heard from parents. Everyone who bought such a hat for their child appreciated the many advantages of the helmet: it does not slide off the head, does not open the forehead and neck of the wind and cold, protects the neck, and, very importantly, does not hamper the baby’s movements.

Young mothers note - to put on a hat, it takes a minimum of time, it is very simple and the baby can cope on his own. Besides, the helmet sits neatly on his head, covers his forehead, ears, does not slip and does not twist. A huge plus in the opinion of the parents is that even with an unsuccessful neck, the neck is always covered.

A powerful part of the positive reviews about helmets can be heard from athletes. For those involved in snowboarding or skiing, this is in principle the best option for a headgear. Outdoor enthusiasts appreciate helmets because when they descend from a slope, the wind does not blow into the ears and neck, and when falling into a snowdrift, the snow does not fall by the collar. Going on a weekend to the mountains, athletes often take with them two hat-caps made of fleece in different colors. While one hat is dried after contact with snow, the second can be worn.

Children's sports hats, helmets can have a bright print.

This model was also appreciated by urban fashionistas. Girls believe that this element of the wardrobe was very “hidden” exclusively in children's lockers. Owners of helmets say that this model is very cute, original and comfortable.

Owners of helmets are unanimous in one thing: to date, designers offer a lot of models, from amusing and fantasy to very modest. According to them, a hat-hat can be worn on its own, then it’s better to choose a somewhat voluminous version, similar to snood, and in severe colds, such a hat, just tight-fitting, well put on even under a fur hat.

Choosing a hat-helmet, you need to clearly determine two parameters: its size and warmth. Having chosen the material, the correct size remains important. For the child, this is the most important thing - that the hat does not close the view, does not fall on the face, and also that the wind does not blow out from the side and the snow does not fly in. This applies to too big caps. If the headgear is cramped, the baby will be so uncomfortable that he may refuse to dress for a walk or even leave the house.

For children, this problem is less relevant - The helmet is great for any jumpsuit, down jacket or coat. It is enough to choose a color that will be in harmony with outerwear, and the issue is resolved. For adults, picking up a helmet is a little harder.

First of all, all sports models of jackets and down jackets will look good with such a cap, albeit shortened, even elongated. The helmet looks great with snowboard or casual overalls, male and female. More voluminous helmets for young ladies look great with a coat, especially if it has a fur collar or a stand-up collar. More feminine models of hats-helmets - volume knitting, with a fur trim or beautiful embroidery is acceptable to wear with a fur coat or sheepskin coat.

• A very cozy and gentle hat that turns the child into a little teddy bear with fur ears. Practical gray color is suitable for any outerwear, and a pleasant soft coat will not cause discomfort to the baby. A funny muzzle of a teddy bear will conquer not only the heart of the small owner of such a hat, but also everyone around!

• A charming variation on the theme of a hat-helmet and a scarf-snud at the same time. Coarse-knit wool and a deep-fitting cap on the forehead will not allow the baby to freeze even in extreme cold, reliably protecting both the ears, and all the head and neck. The stylish and completely childish image of a little fox will add a young lady charm and mischief.

• An original hat-hat that looks feminine and tender. Due to the combined type of knitting, such a hat looks very interesting, more reminiscent of a soft scarf or stole, tied to the head. Warm beige and peach color of the product remarkably emphasizes eye color and skin tone.

• A hat for ladies who refuse to grow up! The combination of gray and black colors makes this hat a universal accessory for every day, which did not cause any excitement at all, if not for cute ears. This design decision is now at the height of fashion, and in these caps models walk on the catwalks of the most fashionable houses around the world.
