Charles Owen Halo Luxe with MIPS

Wide Peaked helmet with MIPS technology https://www.charlesowen.com/how-charles-owen-uses-mips-technology-to-top-up-helmet-safety

A stunning addition to the Charles Owen performance range, in celebration of our 110th anniversary.

True innovation in style and technology makes Halo a real statement in the show ring.

Comfort is prioritised with the unique 360° ventilation system under the halo ring and luxury padding.

MIPS (Multi-Directional Impact Protection System) is an additional brain protection system.

The MIPS system was invented in 1996 in Sweden by Hans von Holst, a neurosurgeon and Peter Halldin, a researcher from the Royal Institute of Technology.

MIPS is designed to add protection against rotational motion (or kinematics) transmitted to the brain from angled impacts to the head, which is how most riders fall.

Rotational motion is a combination of rotational energy (angular velocity) and rotational forces from angular acceleration that both affect the brain and increase the risk for minor and severe brain injuries.

MIPS’ added protection system has been proven to reduce rotational motion when implemented in a helmet by redirecting energies and forces otherwise transmitted to the brain.
