Looks like a helicopter or jet fighter helmet, you can get a cheap replica from ebay ##

With the headsets sold by Skywares(Gavin and Gary), it comes with awesome mic's which blocks out the wind, not only does it have the sponge as norm but also a little cup covering the mic piece, thus lekka for arvie flips with no helmets ##

So would work great with this helmet ##
