SMITH Optics Session MIPS Mountain Cycling Helmet - Large

Founded in 1965 in Sun Valley, Idaho, Smith is an industry leader that pioneers advanced eyewear and helmets incorporating dynamic technologies, optimized performance, and clean styling to fuel fun beyond walls. Originating with the invention of the first snow goggle featuring a sealed thermal lens and breathable vent foam, Smith has accumulated 50 years of innovation and design experience. Today, the brand seeks to power thrilling experiences in snow, surf, bike, fish, and peak performance outdoor adventures with a comprehensive collection that exudes modern style and vibrant personality.

The Smith Session helmet is designed for all-mountain riders demanding the balance of style, protection, and ventilation. Featuring Koroyd in strategic, zonal impact areas, the helmet gives riders the confidence to charge harder. Massive air ports on the top, combined with internal air channels, allow for maximum airflow and ventilation, keeping the rider cool on the uphill and focused during the descent. The front of the helmet has channels for easy eyewear storage, and the three-position visor rotates high to accommodate goggle storage.

The Session's lightweight Aerocore in-mold construction, integrated skeletal structure, and VaporFit adjustable fit system provide engineered protection and absorption. Koroyd's precise and unique thermal welding process leads to a structure with extremely efficient and consistent energy absorption properties. Upon impact, the cores crush in a controlled manner, decelerating the energy and reducing final trauma levels.

Thousands of co-polymer extruded tubes, thermally welded to create an unparalleled consistent and fully engineered core, make up the Koroyd sections. Each section is engineered to precise durometer, size, and thickness specifications to provide the greatest impact resistance and aesthetically consistent presentation. Koroyd's open cell construction allows cool air in while expelling hot air from the rider's head, integrating with internal channels to create the full Aerocore construction for ventilated protection.

The Smith Session helmet is equipped with the MIPS Brain Protection System, reducing rotational forces caused by angled impacts to the head. Designed for ultimate integration with Smith performance eyewear and goggles, the helmet offers maximum comfort, venting, and storage convenience through the AirEvac ventilation system. With 15 fixed vents for consistent airflow and a three-position adjustable visor, the Session provides the all-mountain rider with speed, style, and confidence in one protective package.
