If it looks cool yes. Make sure it's operator but not too operator. For example, multicam hat is too much. LA hat, or NY hat is too casual. Now, LAFD, NYFD etc etc is the perfect level of operator. Also if it looks dusty - the dust acts as level IV ballistic protection.

The Crye Precision AirFrame is very nice. The light weight definitely helped out with my back problems. I also had fewer headaches at the end of the day from breaching than I had with the MICH helmet. That opening at the top really helps out. Another draw back from the AirFrame is that it falls short in the crush test than the Ops-Core and MICH. When you put it on you feel like Dark Helmet from Spaceballs. But it also looks cool! So super plus there. Didn't stick around long enough to get the Ops-Core. But I started off with the old helmet with just a chinstrap and old suspension band, then up to the Marine Corps modified headband suspension band, then to the MICH. The AirFrame was like a gift from the Gods! Money well spent on that one. Great Video.

WOW! This is the absolute most professional advice on body armor that I've seen anywhere on KZfaq. Excellent advice. Although it's geared more towards military and law enforcement, still very useful information for those interested in body armor for home defense. My only critique would be that it would be great to have a video specifically for civilians who want to use body armor for home defense covering commonly available surplus body armor.

Most modern helmets use a ratchet strap. A good way to know of it's tight enough is to tighten it to just where the helmet doesn't move when you bend over forward and backward without the helmet strap done up. It shouldn't be squeezing your head.

I can even unclip my chinstrap and won't have any dip from the helmet. They just released their ballistic version late last year and it seems to have gotten good returns on it so check them out.

I really like what he says at the end about wearing your helmet for prolonged periods of time, I want to say I am not an operator, and I have never worked with operators, however, I have spent the last 6 years working on the flight gear for fighter pilots including their helmets and oxygen masks and at home they’ll fly a few hours at a time a couple times a week and be super happy with how their helmets and masks fit and then we’d go out on deployment and they’d have to wear their helmets and masks for much longer intervals and after one or two flights they’d start coming to us to get things refit because they start noticing hotspots where it’s causing discomfort. But of course Plaid Daddy reviews operator level equipment for guys who are only going to be operating at the local airsoft field.

i'm just wondering who is watching these vids man, if you have an airframe and you need to watch a yt video to learn that you have to slam some team wendy pads in it, an soe counterweight and an l4g24 and some peltor clip things, you're obviously an airsofter

I use an ACH with Howard leights and the team Wendy camfit system, it fits me really well; I just don't have my pads setup very well yet.

One thing i realised with my mich 2000 is that removing padding(top one) will get your headstuck in the helmet, and now the helmet sits like a rock and its perfect when moving alot.

Went TEAM WENDY EXFIL SL. “Because looking kool is important, lol”. Words heeded! More important; after watching a dozen different helmet reviews, when reviews start repeating - “get the Team Wendy internal pads and suspensions system if yours is not comfortable or stabilizing your dome.....I hear a pattern of who is providing the better products. Thanks for your review.

I use a couple of the standard Army issue ACH from ArmorSource. They don't look as cool, but you can usually pick one up for $200 or under and still get decent ballistic protection, but you are better off getting an aftermarket retention system than the standard one, like Team Wendy. Then you add rails, a RHINO and velcro for your patches to look a little bit cooler.

I'm curious, is the black NVD mount for the ACH authorized for use with the OCP camo pattern, or is the tan one the authorized color with that pattern?

I like it how you completely ignored the older style low cut helmets. I understand the tacticool factor of high speed low drag operator helmets, but id rather not have one of those in combat.

Love the videos, keep them coming as fast as possible. I would like to see a review of a HHV helmet. They are cheap, but apparently made with all the right stuff, to the right standards. I would be interested to know what you think...

Can't remember exactly what helmet I was wearing, it was about 6 years ago in the british army and it was like wearing a colander with blunt knives in it but everyone else was okay with it, guess I have a weird shaped tactical operator commando head too.
