POC Fornix MIPS Helmet – Gibbsite Green Matte – XL

POC are known as one of the leaders when it comes to safety and innovation in helmet technology and with the Fornix, it is easy to see why. The in-mould construction fuses a tough polycarbonate outer shell to an impact-absorbing EPS foam creating a helmet that is lightweight and comfortable to wear. What’s unique are the Aramid Bridges integrated into the EPS foam; often used in the aerospace and military industry, they add structural strength to the helmet and help dissipate energy from an impact over a larger surface area. To further increase safety POC have added MIPS, a low-friction layer that sits between the liner and shell enabling a small amount of movement between them; in the event of an angled impact or fall, this movement helps to re-direct energy away from the head. The active ventilation is highly adjustable by sliding a button on the outer shell; keep the vents closed for cold conditions or open them right up for warm days and hiking in the backcountry. Chimney vents sit…
