other reviewers say its heavy. its definitely heavier than most hoods. not a problem unless you have a sissy girl neck and cant manage the weight. i wear it comfortably for around 75% of my 10 hour shifts 5 days a week.
the sturdiness is where this helmet shines, and is why i picked it up. everyone at my work swears by jackson for their hoods. things are indestructible, most hoods i pick up usually feel flimsy and ive had hoods crack when i drop them. with this jackson, it feels like i could take a .50cal to the temple in it and be fine. if you want a real tank of a hood with a clear lens at a solid price, this cant be beat.
excellent hood, very satisfied.
