Oakley has unveiled its first snow helmet – and it’s amazing. See it here first!

All-day wear

Oakley has designed the Mod 5 (available in a range of colours) with zero-pressure earcups for maximum comfort. The cups won’t cancel out noise, though, so you’ll still hear what’s going on around you. A magnetic Fidlock buckle keeps the helmet snug in place, leading to quick and easy magnetic fastening of the Mod 5 even if you’re wearing thick and cumbersome snow gloves

Go wi th the flow

The Mod 5’s patented Modular Brim System works with any goggles, so you know it’ll work with your existing gear. Hot-air flow is managed by an integrated venting system, including brim ventilation to reduce the risk of your goggle lenses fogging up in the heat of the action. The helmet’s one-piece inner liner is removable and washable, too, so no excuses for helmet stink

Deep imp act

Whether you ski or snowboard, you need to cover your skull – and preferably with a degree of style. Cue the Oakley Mod 5, a form-fitting helmet designed to protect your head against major impacts. The hybrid-shell construction (ABS and In-Mold) increases the Mod 5’s durability without weighing it down. MIPS, a patented brain-protection system, safeguards your head from impact in any direction
