Customisation of your Antarès helmet
If you wish, you can change the colours of the strap, the band and the triangle of this model to have a unique helmet. In its classic version, its elements are chrome-plated. It’s up to you to choose your helmet customisation colours according to your preferences! We have written a blog article on helmet customisation so you can do it easily.

Composition of your Premium riding helmet
The shell
The outer shell of the helmet is made of ABS. Its role is to disperse the energy of the impact over the surface of the helmet. When your helmet hits an object, the shell distributes the shock wave by dissipating it. Rigid and lightweight, it is known for its great scratch resistance.

The inner padding
Made of EPS (expanded polystyrene), it absorbs the energy emitted by the shock by contracting. The padding therefore becomes much denser. Its density varies depending on the sizes of our helmets. To observe the effects of an impact on the padding, check out our blog article.

The vents
Its 4 front vents and 2 rear extractors provide good air circulation. Thermal regulation is therefore improved.

The retention system
The harness ensures a good fit of the helmet on the rider's head. It consists of 3 points. The Y-shaped design of the fastening system has points that are further apart, which reduces the rotation of the helmet. The straps are made of nylon and the buckles are made of POM.

The helmet pads
In contact with the rider's head, the high-end foams allow for a perfect fit of your riding helmet and optimal comfort. Whether your head shape is round or oval, they will conform to your morphology. Removable, these internal pads can be regularly taken out and cleaned to maintain the helmet's cleanliness. Made in Italy, they are breathable, certified OEKO-TEX® and can be hand washed in lukewarm water.

The foams are sold with the helmet.

Our riding helmets are handcrafted in our workshop in Saintes. We present their creation process.

The cross visor
The short visor has been designed to meet the requirements of eventing riders on a cross-country course and to protect the rider in case of a fall. The European standard EN1384-2023 requires the visor to flex when a load is applied to it. This is to prevent it from breaking and injuring the rider. Therefore, the visors of Antarès helmets are intentionally flexible. In case of deformation, it can be manually reshaped to restore its original form.

The helmet bag is ideal for protecting and transporting your helmet easily. It is designed with attention to detail, featuring a large central pocket and a big zipper to facilitate helmet storage.
