Are these quality boots and helmet?

I'm thinking of buying a new Troxel Liberty helmet http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009SU8VAY/ref=s9...

Anyone have a liberty helmet? are they good? I'm looking for a quality helmet that is lightweight, well ventilated and low profile.

And a pair of Fatbaby boots with a riding sole.

What do you guys think about fatbabys? As a boot for riding, normal wear, and ranch work. Are they good quality? Also, ladies, do you think they're ugly? My mom says they're ugly for some reason. Does the heel have any issues? I've never ridden in a boot with a roper heel. Will the stitching fall out?

Thanks in advance, and sorry for asking so many questions within a question.

Update:

I would, but I have 2 pairs of cowboy boots already that have a tall shaft. I kinda would like some that are short for a change.

    Troxel is a VERY good helmet brand.

    Personally I don't like Fatbabys> The colors that Ariat has them in are cute, but I don't like the whole chunky look that they have. Ariat is a good brand though. If I were you I'd get some taller boots, but that is my personal preference.

    Troxel is a good helmet brand, I've ridden in a few and they tend to be quite comfortable. I do prefer Ovation helmets though, no real reason just a personal preference.

    As far as the boots, I'm not a fan of how they look... but I also prefer paddock boots or English knee highs. I ride English mostly though :p. When I do ride western though I have a pair of these and might I say they are AMAZING! They are comfortable and durable, good choice if you like how they look.
