Mountaineering helmets - essential protection in the mountains

Alpinstore offers a wide selection of mountaineering helmets. Over the past few winter seasons, we've noticed that hiking and mountaineering have become increasingly popular sports. As a result, we're keen to offer you quality equipment to prevent injuries when you're out in the mountains.

Hiking/mountaineering helmets are an essential part of your equipment. In the event of a nasty fall, it's a must! Due to the regular occurrence of injuries, helmets have been redesigned by brands to include protection on the side and back of the helmet.

Choosing your touring and/or mountaineering helmet

You'll be able to choose from a range of brands includingSkitrab lightweight mountaineering helmets lightweight mountaineering helmets.

Choice of technologyThere are two technologies on the market today. Each offers different advantages, but both are highly effective for climbing, hiking and mountaineering.

- The ABS plastic shell: its main advantage is robustness. As this technology is less expensive, it's ideal for children and occasional climbers.

- The polycarbonate hull: known for its lightness and good shock absorption. Ideal for regular riders.

Head sizeHead circumference: important when choosing your helmet, head circumference is easy to measure. Use a flexible tape measure to measure the circumference of your skull. Place it at forehead level and work your way around, passing over the hump at the back. The aim is to get to the largest point on your head.

Features not to forgetFeatures to bear in mind: a hiking/mountaineering helmet is suitable for your activity if, and only if, it complies with three main characteristics:

- The fit: whether it's straps, a thumbwheel or a notched plastic clip, the fit must be perfect during your outing. Note that the adjustment system must be easy to use, especially when wearing gloves.

- Comfort : the helmet should cover your head perfectly, but should not reveal any unpleasant compression points.

- Vision : it must be possible to look upwards. It's essential to be able to see what's ahead.

Now that you know the main features of a climbing/mountaineering helmet, go for it. The protection of your head is the protection of your life, so don't hesitate to check out our Camp, Dynafit, La Sportiva, Mammut, Scott or Skitrab mountaineering helmets for optimum safety.
