Smith Optics Trace MIPS

The Trace is designed as a versatile all-rounder. Its balance of ventilation and protection makes it equally capable for road cycling, gravel riding, and bikepacking adventures.

KOROYD is a honeycomb-like structure that replaces some of the traditional EPS foam. It is designed to absorb impact energy more efficiently while allowing for better airflow, resulting in a helmet that is both safer and more ventilated.

Yes, the Trace features integrated channels specifically designed to hold your sunglasses securely in place when you want to take them off during a climb or a break.

The VaporFit system uses a dial at the back to provide 270-degree adjustment around your head. Simply place the helmet on your head and turn the dial until it feels snug but comfortable, ensuring it doesn't shift while you ride.

The AirEvac system is designed to pull warm air away from your eyewear through the helmet's internal channels. While it works effectively to minimize fogging, performance can still depend on the specific shape of your glasses and the ambient humidity.

Yes, the Ionic+ antimicrobial lining is designed to be removable. This makes it easy to wash away sweat and keep the helmet fresh, especially since the lining is treated to control odors.
