FAQs

Which safety standards does the Kylo meet?

It meets ASTM F1163-15, PAS015:2011, and VG1 01-040 2014-12 standards.

Can I replace the headband?

Yes, the headband is removable and designed to be washed to maintain hygiene.

Is the peak removable?

No, the wide peak is integrated into the shell design for structural safety.

How do I know if the fit is correct?

The helmet should feel snug but comfortable with no excess movement when you shake your head side to side.

Does this fit both round and oval heads?

Yes, the internal shell shape is engineered to accommodate both common head profiles effectively.

Is this helmet suitable for competition?

Because it meets multiple international safety standards, it is widely accepted for most equestrian competition disciplines.

Troubleshooting

Helmet feels loose even when the dial is tightened

You may have the incorrect shell size; double-check your head circumference against the manufacturer's size chart.

Harness buckle is difficult to click

Check the buckle for debris or grit; clean with compressed air or a dry brush to ensure the locking mechanism functions smoothly.

Sweat buildup in the lining

Remove the headband and wash it. Ensure the ventilation slots are not obstructed by hair or dust.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Meets three major international safety standards
  • Easy-to-use dial-fit system for micro-adjustments
  • Excellent ventilation keeps the rider cool
  • Removable and washable interior lining
  • Lightweight design reduces neck strain

Cons

  • Requires careful measurement to select the correct size bracket
  • Leather finish requires specific care compared to plastic finishes
  • Wide peak might not suit every discipline's aesthetic preference

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your Kylo riding hat, place the helmet on your head and rotate the rear dial until the cradle holds the helmet securely in place without feeling restrictive. The harness should be adjusted so the quick-release buckle sits firmly under the chin.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the exterior leather shell with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or saddle soaps unless specifically formulated for technical helmet surfaces.
  • Hygiene: Remove the internal headband regularly and hand wash with mild soap; air dry completely before reattaching.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Never leave the helmet in a hot car, as extreme temperatures can affect the integrity of the materials.
