Mips® - What's All That About?

How it works:

The Mips® Essential Core system is an injection-moulded plastic, low-friction layer placed between the helmet’s comfort padding and its energy-absorbing liner. This permits the layers to move relative to each other, helping to reduce rotational motion to the head in certain angled impacts. See all our Mips®-equipped helmets here

Where it’s used:

Simple, yet efficient, the Mips® Essential Core system is a solution designed to help reduce rotational motion to the head in certain angled impacts. A perfect introduction to the Mips safety systems, it can be applied in helmets used for bicycling, horse riding, motorcycle riding and skiing.

The principle of the safety system

The Mips® safety system is designed to provide added safety for helmets in many accidents. For certain impacts, the Mips system can reduce harmful forces that might otherwise be transferred to the user’s head.
