The MIPS® system

ABS-Hard Shell material
Some Oakley helmets have a special hybrid construction. This gives the helmets a light weight, as you would be used to from an in-mould helmet construction. Thanks to strategically placed ABS reinforcement on the specific Defined Impact Points, these helmets offer extra protection as you would expect from a hard shell helmet construction: the best of both!

Oakley ski helmets not only offer great protection, they are also extremely comfortable. For example, some helmets have the special BOA-Fit system for optimal fit. Oakley helmets are also made with the special 'Unobtainium' material. This wear-resistant material has a light weight but offers all the protection you could need.
