Grid MIPS Helmet
We all droop our noggins when we tap out on energy for the day, but to have it be a struggle to keep your head up when in the middle of an epic fresh powder day is just a pain. To alleviate that pain, Giro designs the Grid MIPS, which drops heavy, laboring weight to give you a lid with enhanced safety that checks in at only 400 grams. Giro achieves this grin-inducing weight even with the addition of MIPS Spherical, which sees two layers of EPS foam rotating independently during an impact to provide enhanced protection. Giro could have stopped there, but they boosted the creature comforts with Polartec Power Grid padding, removable ear pads, and audio compatibility for Giro systems by Outdoor Tech. A Fidlock buckle securely clicks so you can keep your hands gloved and warm, and adjustable venting opens up to keep you fresh on tour back to the top for another run.

I barely even notice this helmet is on my head, yet it is so durable and warm! I will never get another helmet other than the Grid. HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS FOR YOUR NOGGIN'!

This helmet has served me great in some of the coldest weather. It has super safe technology and is a great fit for most people.

I had the opposite experience as the reviewer below. I purchased an Anon and a Smith helmet prior, both of which cause pain in the temple region. The moral of the story is to buy the helmet that fits your head. This thing fits my head like a glove! Also, super light! The price is steep, but you get what you pay for with the quality.

Uncomfortable fit causes headaches

I was really stoked to get this and had been eyeing it for a while. At the price point it should be flawless but unfortunately it's not. Overall really disappointed that a $260 MSRP helmet doesn't meet the basic comfort test. Giro really missed the mark on this one IMO. Returned. First the good: This is a top-of-the-line helmet from Giro with MIPS, which helps keep your noggin from rotating too much in a twisting collision. The design looks super cool and the venting system is well designed and the top vent slider to open/close works well. The Grid helmet fit my Giro Contact goggles perfectly with no obvious gap. The Fidlock buckle is neat and seems to work pretty well single handed, although that wasn't really a selling point for me. Giro claims this is a new "spherical" MIPS system, however I'm skeptical it's a real improvement as noted below. Cons: The liner is too bulky and right out of the box, it bunches around the temples. At first I thought that was just from shipping, but when I put it on, I quickly found that underneath those bunchy areas Giro had the brilliant idea of putting small plastic pieces that push right into your temples, which cause immediate discomfort and I had a minor headache within like 30 seconds of wearing this helmet (each time I stubbornly tried it on, thinking it would be different the next time but it wasn't). I tried various configurations with the neck strap, pulling the liner down tighter, and I had my wife try it on to see if I'm crazy but she had the same experience. I even bought a second one just to make sure. This is a design flaw and I strongly recommend against this, at least from a comfort perspective.
