The Giro Taggert MIPS Snow Helmet is designed for skiers and snowboarders seeking lightweight, stylish protection. It offers advanced safety features like MIPS® and In-Mold Construction for a lighter, more comfortable fit, making it ideal for all-mountain riding. A potential consideration is its focus on lightweight design, which may offer less impact protection than heavier, more robust helmets in extreme scenarios.

MIPS® (Multi-Directional Impact Protection System) is a safety feature designed to reduce rotational forces on the brain during angled impacts. It works by allowing the helmet's liner to move independently from the outer shell during a crash.
Clean the exterior with a soft, damp cloth. For interior padding, remove it if possible and hand wash with mild soap and cold water. Always air dry completely.
In-Mold Construction fuses the helmet's outer shell with the impact-absorbing foam liner during the manufacturing process. This creates a lighter, stronger helmet with improved ventilation compared to traditional helmet construction.
The Taggert helmet features 'Passive Aggressive Venting,' which is an auto-venting system. It is designed to automatically regulate airflow based on your activity level and external temperature, and the vents cannot be manually opened or closed.
The Giro Taggert MIPS Snow Helmet is available in sizes S (52-55cm), M (55.5-59cm), L (59.5-62.5cm), and XL (62.5-65cm).
While helmets don't have a strict expiration date, it's recommended to replace a snow helmet every 3-5 years, or immediately after any significant impact, as internal protective materials can degrade over time or lose effectiveness.
Adjust the In Form 2 Fit System dial at the back of the helmet for a tighter fit. Ensure the helmet is sitting level on your head, not tilted back or forward.
Loosen the In Form 2 Fit System dial. If pressure points persist, check if the interior padding needs adjustment or cleaning, or if the helmet size is incorrect.
Ensure your goggles are positioned correctly on your face before putting on the helmet. The helmet's rear retention system is designed to work with most goggle straps; try adjusting the strap position on the back of the helmet.
The Passive Aggressive Venting system automatically regulates airflow. For more warmth, consider wearing a thin balaclava or beanie underneath. For more cooling, ensure the vents are not obstructed.
Setup:
The In Form 2 Fit System is designed for easy adjustment. Simply turn the dial located at the back of the helmet to tighten or loosen the fit. Ensure the helmet sits level on your head, with the front rim about one or two finger-widths above your eyebrows. The chin strap should be snug but comfortable.
Compatibility:
This helmet is designed for snow sports (skiing and snowboarding). It is compatible with most standard snow goggles. The helmet meets CE EN1077 safety standards.
