MSR’s MAV2 Helmet
The MAV2 helmet from MSR is a mid-priced helmet with some high-end features.

The shell has a round-oval head shape and uses anti-microbial SilverCool wicking material in the interior. It has a strengthened chinbar and large eyeport that accommodate most goggles, including over-the-glasses types.
