Winter Helmet GIRO LEDGE FS MIPS — matte orange, size M (55.5–59 cm)

The GIRO LEDGE FS MIPS — matte orange, size M (55.5–59 cm) is a winter protective helmet engineered for cold-weather riding and snow sports. It combines an in-mold shell with integrated MIPS rotational-impact technology and an adjustable fit system to deliver certified protection, thermal comfort, and a secure fit for skiers, snowboarders and winter commuters. The matte orange finish improves daytime visibility on slopes while the size M fit accommodates head circumferences from 55.5 to 59 cm.

Advantages

This helmet offers rotational-impact protection through MIPS, reducing rotational forces transmitted to the head during certain impacts. The adjustable retention system ensures an individualized, stable fit across the specified head circumference range. Ventilation, ear coverage and lining materials are chosen for cold-weather comfort and moisture management. The helmet’s construction balances impact protection with a lightweight profile suitable for extended use during winter activity.

Suitable for

• Skiing on groomed slopes and off-piste runs
• Snowboarding at resorts and in terrain parks
• Winter commuting and city cycling in cold conditions
• Snowshoeing, winter hiking and other cold-weather outdoor recreation

When it may not be suitable

This helmet is designed specifically for winter sports and cold-weather riding; it may be less suitable for summer cycling or activities where heavy ventilation and extreme breathability are required. Users who need a smaller or larger head size than the specified 55.5–59 cm range should choose a different size to ensure proper protection and fit.

Key specifications

• Intended use: winter sports and cold-weather riding
• Fit range: 55.5–59 cm (size M)
• Safety feature: rotational-impact protection (MIPS)
• Shell: in-mold construction for impact energy management
• Comfort: padded liners and ear coverage for thermal retention
• Adjustability: rear retention system for personalized fit
• Finish: matte orange for improved visibility

How to use

Place the helmet squarely on the head so the front rim sits just above the eyebrows. Adjust the rear retention system until the helmet fits snugly without pressure points and fasten the chin strap, leaving enough room to fit one or two fingers between strap and chin. Ensure ear pads and lining cover the ears as intended for thermal comfort. Confirm that the helmet remains stable during head movement and adjust straps and retention as needed before each session on the slopes or during winter rides.

What to consider before purchase

• Measure head circumference accurately to match the 55.5–59 cm size M range
• Decide whether MIPS rotational protection and winter-focused features meet your activity needs
• Consider compatibility with goggles, audio systems or helmets liners you plan to use
• Check that the helmet’s ventilation and ear coverage suit your typical temperature and activity intensity

Usage recommendations

Inspect the helmet regularly for any signs of damage, cracks or significant wear and replace it after any substantial impact. Clean textile liners according to manufacturer guidance, avoid exposing the helmet to high heat or solvents, and store it in a dry place. For optimal protection, pair the helmet with appropriate goggles and follow resort or local safety guidelines while skiing, snowboarding or commuting in winter conditions.
