  • Adjustable vents that help regulate temperature as conditions change
  • A magnetic buckle chin strap and precise fit system designed to provide a secure, comfortable feel for your head shape

FAQs

How do I find the right size men's ski helmet?
Start by measuring your head circumference with a soft tape measure placed just above your eyebrows and ears. Match that measurement to the brand's sizing chart and look for a helmet with an adjustable fit system that lets you dial in the sizing for a secure, comfortable feel on the slopes.
What is MIPS technology and do I need it in a ski helmet?
MIPS technology is a multi-directional impact protection system built into the helmet's inner lining. It is designed to help reduce rotational forces during angled impacts, offering an added layer of protection beyond standard EPS foam construction. Most modern helmets at Peter Glenn include MIPS across a range of price points.
Does Peter Glenn sell ski helmets for women?
Yes, alongside the men's ski helmet lineup, Peter Glenn stocks women's helmets from trusted brands built with the same safety standards and modern features found across the full collection.
What makes modern ski helmets better than basic options?
Modern helmets have advanced significantly in both safety and comfort. Features like MIPS technology, adjustable fit systems, magnetic buckles, and integrated ventilation give skiers superior protection and noticeably better comfort on the mountain than basic helmet designs can offer.
