It's been around for ages and has never really looked that good: the helmet cover. But the waterproof helmet cover is an option on rainy days to keep your head dry and warm.
Our two candidates from Gore and Vaude fulfil this purpose - and offer added safety on the road thanks to integrated reflective piping. Both models are size-adjustable via a drawstring, although the Gore fit (available in two sizes) is slightly better than Vaude's, which creases up a lot at the back.
