Is The Color Black On The Ski Slopes Cool Or Tacky?
If you have decided to finally do the sensible thing and invest in a ski helmet to protect your brain, then you are to be congratulated. If you are like most of us, you probably spent a lot of time looking at helmets before you bought one. It was not an easy decision, was it?
If you are the practical type, price and quality were your first priority. There are safety standards that apply to all protective headgear, but even so, they all have different features. You had to balance quality with price and that is never easy.
You probably spent even more time agonizing over the look of your helmet than you did over its effectiveness. The aerodynamic features were only one of your considerations. In fact, the wind sheer factor probably took a distant second place to the cool look of an aerodynamically designed helmet.
Then there was the color. You knew perfectly well that the color was not going to have anything to do with how well it worked, but that did not stop you from spending as much time or more making a color decision as you had spent on your other decisions.
You were probably attracted to a lot of different colors. Red always stands out and makes you take a second look, but does it stand out too much? That matte grey helmet had a great look to it, but would it look bland on the slopes. You probably even wondered about things like whether or not your headgear would go with your black sport watch!
You were really attracted to the black helmet, but maybe spent hours before making your decision. Black is the color of Darth Vader, you thought. Black is the color Goths choose. Black doesn’t suit your personality, but that helmet looks so cool! What to do?
No worries! That black one is not going to make people think you’re a Goth or a Star Wars geek. Just avoid wearing all black and you will be okay. If you have a white or colored ski parka and pants, they will stand out more than your helmet. You can safely wear black boots with your helmet, too. Just don’t wear all black.
Black can be either cool or tacky depending on how you use it. As a rule of thumb, wearing all of any color from head to foot is usually tacky. One exception to that rule might be white, but wearing All White on the ski slopes has its disadvantages. For one thing, people might mistake you for a Ninja assassin. For another, if you get lost or have an accident, nobody will be able to see you. Wear something that contrasts with the color of the snow.
