I'm looking for a WW helmet too, with a "bill" or visor on it.  I like
the "Daffy" in the NRS catalog by appearance.  Of course, purple would
be nice but red will do if I have to go that route.  Any recommendations
there?

I have a Daffy (actually, my second one) and I love it. It's one of the few
composite helmets to have sizes, and the XL fits my oversized noggin just
great.   The bill is a bit smaller than I'd really like.  It helps in rain,
but doesn't offer a ton of sun protection.  

You might want to also consider the Predator Lee.  Plastic, but solid and
less expensive, with a fuller bill.
