Has he got a cycle helmet? I would think there's not that much difference between falling off a bike or a horse.

Please do not let him ride in a cycle hat, they protect very different areas of he skull than those likely to happen in a riding mishap.

If you buy a cheap one go for a cheapy skull. I have seen minor falls result in concussion with adjustable hats where the adjusting band comes away...just look ..many are held on with velcro which can fail if the size is adjusted to near the limit!!

Decathlon maybe?

oops, I thought some of them used to be approved for riding horses too. A freinds daughter always rode in one on the roads.

i swear by the adjustable troxels

have fallen on head in them 3 times now - dont ask.lol

never had concussion, hat never moved and all was fine.

hat was replaced obviously each time.

the entry level troxel is cheap and rated very highly in tests carried out two years ago.

The Dublin Onyx is reasonably priced.

I have a troxel and they are great (it's purple to!)

My dad has a dublin onyx and he seems to like it

I have a troxel for driving & find it great.

I think the Champion ones are reasonably priced, but I do know OH started off with a Charles and Owen kids skull which did the job and wasn't expensive at all. Best safe than sorry and all that!
(Good for you persuading him to get horsey!!)
