Just got myself a Met Parachute helmet. Tried 2 pairs of goggles so far and both slightly to wide.

Anyone using a Met Parachute, and if so which goggles?

Which version?

I have the v2 and use Spy+ Breakaway goggles, no problem.

This version - https://www.wiggle.co.uk/met-parachute-full-face-helmet-1

Not sure which version is it? It's not the new MCR one.

That might be the newer version.

I'd buy a few pairs off CRC and try them with it, return the ones you don't want.

I got some cheap 100% Accuri myself the other day.

Ok, I’ve tried a few more and none fit as snug with the helmet as they do without, they’re not tight up against my face.

Is this just how they fit with a helmet?

Snug? Do you mean the "splay" on the straps is the problem or they're interfering with the helmet.

What size helmet are we talking about?

(I've got the same helmet with poc iris goggles and it's fine, but I've got a big head, the fit is looser than with a half helmet but no worse than with any of the other full face helmets I've ever tried)

It’s a medium. The goggles don’t feel tight on my face, there only just touching my face, no matter how tight I do them up.

If that makes any sense, I’ve never had a full face or goggles before, so maybe it’s normal?
