They've been in Wrexham for donkeys' years. They are one of the biggest safety brands in the horse world, catering for pony-mad kids and professional jockeys alike. They worked with the record-breaking NH champ (Sir) A.P. McCoy to produce a helmet specifically for jockeys; the "APM" is now in its second generation. I didn't fall for the marketing hype, and so I wear the equivalent made by Champion, Charles Owen's nearest rivals. martc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
