EQ3 riding helmets are equipped with Mips® safety system, a Multi-Directional Impact Protection System (MIPS), to help protect against brain injury. The EQ3 model excelled in Folksam's riding helmet test in 2021, where it received the award Good Choice! The helmet has a stylish look with a matte finish and a visor in artificial leather. The ventilation holes provide good airflow and help keep you cool during riding sessions. The liner (inner lining) has our Coolmax® technology which keeps you dry and gives a comfortable feeling by transporting away the moisture. The lining is removable and can be easily washed clean with lukewarm water. The EQ3 riding helmets are approved according to the new safety standard CE VG1 01.040 2014-12.

Coolmax® is developed to keep you dry and increase your comfort. Made of specially treated polyester fiber with a unique surface construction that transports moisture away from the skin through the outer layer of the fabric, where it dries faster and therefore regulates the skin's temperature through condensation cooling.

When purchasing an EQ3, we suggest measuring your head, (see measuring video), then refer to the size chart and order one size up. For example, a 56cm head measurement would look to purchase a 57cm helmet.E
