Nice but needs Refinements

First off, size up. Bern sizing doesn't just run on the small side, it sprints to the small side. A Giro Medium will fit comparable to a Bern large. A few other small issues, my goggle clip had a bad habit of getting rotated and falling out, Bern actually recommended that I use a little bit of duct tape to make it more securely fastened to the helmet. It worked, but really guys? Also, the snaps that hold the knit liner in aren't very sturdy, you have to baby them or they will tear right out of the liner. One huge plus to this helmet is it actually fits inside a hood flawlessly. If it came with some removable pads of different thicknesses like other ski helmets do (Giro Encore 2)for refining the fit, I think I'd buy another.
