Toddler Loves It

I was worried about purchasing a helmet online without doing a fit in store, but I measured my toddlers head and went with the Small as he was right at the limit for XS. Not only does it fit perfectly, it’s extremely easy to adjust so as he grows it will be no problem adjusting the size. He also just loves wearing it. He wants to wear it around the house for no reason, so that must mean it’s fairly comfortable on his head. The MIPS gives me some extra peace of mind, especially with a toddler who can always use added protection. Overall, very happy with my purchase.

Good Ole' Smith Delivers Again

Been out of the MTB game for awhile and back at it soon. Getting my gear updated and needed a new helmet. I haven't used it yet riding, but early impressions are a) great fit (size medium and I'm right in the middle of the size guide), good retention and head hugger system (even pressure vs. pressure points), MiPs and Koroyd, and a modern aesthetic. One downside is that I can't figure out how to insert my glasses arms into the open slots since the Koroyd prevents the arms to stick into the helmet holes. The visor has 3 adjustable positions to accommodate glasses or goggles, but since the Koroyd blocks the holes, it doesn't allow the glasses to be placed. Small detail (to me at least) since I rarely put glasses on my helmet (but again, it's been awhile and maybe this is the new norm). Otherwise, great helmet.
