does anyone make the single strap "novelty" helmets anymore?

I want to change to a different question.
Why would you opt to wear a novelty helmet when the real half helmets can look so similar, and cost so little money. If you're already wearing a helmet, why not make it a real one if it's cheap? Is it about the thickness of the shell being uncomfortable or something?

i know what you mean. you can take some of those goofy shaped ones and pull the moulding off the edge and cut them down until they are straight. last good one i bought came from a swap meet. havn't seen another in quite awhile.

This beanie comes close, that is the side straps don't go around the ears- but just provide a little stability from the helmet being an air scoop at speed and to sit firmly on the head.

No respectable motorcycle gear store will sell that garbage your are looking for.
It is Probably illegal and they don't do it to ruin their reputation and liability.
You just have to go to one of those shady pop up tent stores, like you said, at a rally to find them. You know the ones that don't pay their taxes and deal under the table.
You might as well just put on a bicycle helmet. They look even cooler than those skid lids
