FAQs
How do I measure my head for the correct size?
Use a flexible measuring tape to measure the circumference of your head, about an inch above your eyebrows and around the back of your head.
How often should I replace my riding hat?
Replace your riding hat every 3-5 years, or immediately if it has been involved in a fall.
Can I wash the entire helmet?
No, only the inner liner is machine washable. Wipe the outer shell with a damp cloth.
What if my hat gets wet?
Allow the hat to air dry completely. Do not use a heat source, as this can damage the materials.
Where can I find replacement parts?
Replacement parts, such as liners or harness straps, may be available through the manufacturer or authorized retailers.
What standards does this hat meet?
The Karben Sienna Riding Hat is certified to PAS 015:2011 and BSI KITEMARK standards.
How do I know if the helmet fits correctly?
The helmet should sit level on your head and cover your forehead. It should be snug but not too tight, and the harness should be adjusted properly. The hat should not move when you shake your head.
Troubleshooting
The helmet feels loose.
Tighten the micro-adjustable dial at the rear of the helmet and adjust the 4-point harness straps.
The helmet is uncomfortable.
Check the fit and ensure the helmet is level on your head. Adjust the straps and dial for a more comfortable fit. If the discomfort persists, consider a different helmet size or model.
The liner is sweaty and smells.
Remove the liner and machine wash it. Ensure the liner is completely dry before reinserting it into the helmet. Consider using a helmet freshener spray.
The ventilation doesn't feel effective.
Ensure the vents are not blocked by hair or other obstructions. Ride in an area with good airflow to maximize the helmet's ventilation capabilities.
