TECHNOLOGIES

MIPS – This acronym stands for "Multi-Directional Impact Protection System" and is an innovative technology that can be used in helmets for a variety of purposes. MIPS was developed to make helmets safer against angled impacts, both in leisure and outdoor sports (mountaineering, mountain biking and motorcycling) and in the workplace. MIPS is a movable layer integrated on the inner side of the protective helmet, close to the head. The sliding layer is not rigidly fixed but can move back and forth by 10–15 millimetres. In the event of a side impact, this range of motion allows the helmet structure to redirect the acting rotational force away from the user's head and brain through a sliding movement. As a result, protective helmets with the MIPS system provide a higher level of protection for the wearer than conventional helmets.

MONOMATIC EASY-FASTENING SYSTEM – The anatomical buckle design lets you easily unfasten and fasten the helmet with one hand! The strap length is adjusted gradually. There is chin padding that provides extra comfort.

BASIC PADDING – The inner part of the helmet affects comfort. It wicks moisture well. Easily removable, washable and anti-allergenic.

3D IAS – The sophisticated IAS 3D system ensures optimal helmet size adjustment for different head sizes and shapes simply by turning the adjustment wheel. The space inside the helmet adapts to the size and circumference of the head.

FAS STRAPS – A strap adjustment system that lets you easily adapt the strap position to the shape of your head. The straps adjust in several places.

Before buying, measure your head circumference and use it to choose the right helmet size. It is recommended to measure with a string about 1.5 cm above the ears.
