Giro Avera MIPS Helmet

MIPS stands for Multi-directional Impact Protection System. It is a low-friction layer inside the helmet that allows for a sliding motion during an angled impact, which helps reduce the rotational forces that can be transferred to your brain.

Yes, the Avera features Thermostat Control, which allows you to manually open or close the vents with a simple slider on the outside of the helmet. This makes it easy to dump heat on a warm afternoon or seal things up when the temperature drops.

The Avera is designed for seamless compatibility with all Giro goggles, and its shape is generally neutral enough to fit well with most other brands. The Stack Vent technology also aligns with goggle vents to help pull warm air away and keep your lenses fog-free.

There is a dial at the base of the helmet that allows for up to 6cm of adjustment. It provides a precise, secure fit even while wearing gloves, ensuring the helmet stays stable on your head throughout the day.

Yes, the Avera is fully compatible with Giro's Outdoor Tech audio systems. You can easily install compatible audio chips into the ear pads for music or communication on the slopes.

Yes, it uses In-Mold construction, which fuses a tough polycarbonate outer shell with an impact-absorbing foam liner. This method creates a durable helmet that feels significantly lighter on your head than traditional hard-shell designs.
