Winter Women's Helmet GIRO Tenet MIPS — matte black, size S (52–55.5 cm)

GIRO Tenet MIPS is a winter women's protective helmet in matte black, size S (52–55.5 cm), designed for skiing, snowboarding and other cold-weather alpine activities. The helmet combines a hard outer shell with integrated ventilation control and MIPS rotational impact protection to reduce rotational forces in certain impacts. It is built for a close, female-specific fit and is compatible with goggles and common winter accessories to maintain comfort and safety on the slopes.

Advantages

The helmet's hard-shell construction offers robust abrasion resistance and impact durability while maintaining a streamlined profile. MIPS rotational impact protection is integrated to help manage rotational energy transfer during angled impacts. Adjustable ventilation control lets the wearer balance airflow and warmth depending on conditions, and the female-specific fit improves comfort and stability. Matte black finish provides a low-reflective, neutral look that pairs easily with different outerwear and goggles.

Suitable for

• Alpine skiing and resort skiing
• Snowboarding—freestyle and all-mountain
• Winter touring and snowshoeing where a low-profile, ventilated helmet is desired
• Recreational winter sports and lessons

When it may not be suitable

The Tenet MIPS is optimized for winter sports and may be less suitable for summer cycling or events that require helmets specifically certified for cycling impact standards. Users needing integrated audio systems or extreme cold-weather face protection will need to add compatible accessories, as those features are not built into the helmet.

Key specifications

• Fit type: women's-specific fit, size S covering head circumferences 52–55.5 cm
• Shell: hard outer shell construction for impact resistance
• Safety system: integrated rotational impact protection (MIPS)
• Ventilation: adjustable/integrated vent control to regulate airflow
• Compatibility: designed to work with ski goggles and common winter accessories
• Finish: matte black

How to use

Place the helmet on the head and adjust the rear fit system until the helmet sits snugly and level on the head without tilting. Fasten and adjust the chin strap so it is secure but comfortable; the buckle should sit under the chin and the straps should form a V just under each ear. Use the ventilation control to open vents for increased airflow during activity or close them to conserve warmth in colder conditions. Pair the helmet with compatible goggles, ensuring the goggles sit flush against the helmet's goggle channel for stable fit and clear vision.

What to consider before purchase

• Measure head circumference to confirm size S (52–55.5 cm) is appropriate
• Verify that MIPS rotational protection meets your safety preferences
• Consider whether you need additional accessories such as audio inserts, a face mask, or thicker liners for extreme cold
• Ensure compatibility with your preferred goggles and helmet-mounted accessories

Usage recommendations

Use the Tenet MIPS for downhill winter sports where a secure, ventilated, and low-profile helmet is required. Inspect the helmet before each season for signs of damage, replace it after any significant impact, and follow the manufacturer's fitting instructions to maintain intended protective performance.
