I bought this helmet for a trip to climb the volcanoes in Ecuador. It was both comfortable and lightweight, perfect for the trip.

Recommended use
All around Alpine climbing
Have a predecessor of this helmet from about 2018. Decided to retire as it has fair amount of wear and tear by now. Simply ordered the current model without actually seeing it beforehand.
Oh bot, the new thing looks and feels quite a bit more fragile - definitely not going to last for 7 years :)
The whole straps department has been streamlined a lot as well, but feels more cumbersome honestly.
It is comfty, lightweight, well ventilated, etc, etc - but has completely lost the robustness, which was still there in the olden days. I would not recommend it for anything else but sport climbing.
