Why Shoei? At that somewhat Gucci level how does it compare to an Arai?

i have had about 20 helmets over the years.. my current is a Arai, it's the MACK DADDY of helmets.. she set me back about 450.. my wifes helmet is a Suomy.. most shops don't carry them.. we purchased it at MotoGP 2 years ago.. that bitch was 700
.. but what the wife wants, she gets LOL..
i had a Shoei for years, it's a nice helmet.. i would get that.. i have a older one if you want to see it, all it's doing is sitting in my garage next to my other 4 helmets LOL..
