Headband for the GN3

[Christian]

I already bought a simple strap from Ali, but not too good. Another padded one is on the way. Does someone have this headband?

Nope, using a strap from one of my wife's purses.
Works great. Padding not needed.

As its number is 1 of 3754 purses, she gave up the strap. Purse not missed.

I just don´t like t without padding. I buy these stuffs on aliexpress. €2-4 each with free shipping (over €12 purchase).

Arrived a few days ago. Very comfortable to wear the goggles.

I just wore my goggles 3 while flying just now. It’s a bit uncomfortable and I’m thinking maybe a do rag might help.. If it doesn’t I might tray a strap.

 

[Poverty Flyer]

Yeah, my strap doesn't seem to support much.
The goggles pretty much stay put with or without.
My biggest issue is lifting them up while wearing my glasses. They always get caught on the glasses and become one piece.
I don't always wear my glasses anyway. Not really needed. They just make sight more clear for distance. Flying fpv the close stuff seems more important.
I wear a doo rag to soak up all the sweat that runs into my eyes without.

There´s no doo rag in Europe. I´d been living in NYC for years, so I know what it is, but others don´t. If people see you wearing a condom on your head instead of your d..k, everybody will at you.

 

[Poverty Flyer]

No laughs here till I can't find my doo rag and must resort to using my wife's panty hose.
Nothing will keep me from flying my Neo.

 

[Christian]

I go fly from sept. Now it´s very hot and tourists everywhere

You laugh about the do rag, but when I lived in south Texas you had to be very careful about what color your do rag was if you didn’t want to be attacked, depending on the neighborhood you were in. Crazy s***. I’ve had them forever though (50 plus years) even have a pink and purple one, but never used them . Reason I mentioned it was it seems on the Goggles 3 the headband isn’t quite tight enough and I thought it might help. There’s no attachment on the top or back of the G3 without adding velcro and the headset seems to shift some. I do have the N3 as well that I use for a backup that is a bit heavier that could use a strap as was mentioned.
Even working out at the gyms here people would give you a look because of the color. I always wore them with Bose headphones which were heavy back in the day.

This, for most us, europeans completely unknown. I live in one of richest and most peaceful country in europe. Here are no street gangs, no bad hoods, no slums, no violence and no do rag. You can go anytime anywhere and nothing will happen to you.
I´m a big and very tough guy, but have a friendly nature. I spent 3 years in Queens, NY. I´m smoker, so was a lot outside the store I was working. Everybody knew who I was and was probably the only white person going thru the project without being attacked / robbed or similar...

I like it. Had this overhead strap on all my goggles so far. Helps to distribute the weight. The other one is in the garbage now. This one is very soft.

Doo rags are still popular in the US but not quite as much as they used to be.
Thugs, bikers and gangs made them popular years ago.
In some areas you definitely would want to avoid wearing the colors red (bloods) or blue (crips) without the proper affiliation to one of those groups.

My favorite doo rag is black / white with yin & yang designs.
It has a thick terrycloth headband to soak up sweat.

I knew a lot of "street people" and bikers from my 28 year career in the blood industry.
I never had any issues with them and was never afraid of my location or which group controlled the area. I always knew someone that looked out for me. It even came in useful a few times.
My only fear was / is the psychopaths or drugged up freaks living a alternative reality.
And there's sure a lot of them on the loose.

Be safe,

These things are not existing here. No gangs, no drug addicts, no homeless people, no stray dogs/cats on the streets. No trash on the streets, everything clean and tidy, no security gates on businesses or homes, no fences around car dealerships. New cars just park on the front. I live in the 5th largest town in the country and see police car with blue lights 2-3 times a YEAR. Mainly because car accident happened somewhere.

Gee, we had that once.
For 3 days back in 1969.
It was called Woodstock Folk Festival.
