This Mod’s a rocker
It may have escaped your attention but snow season is about to dump its beautiful powdery treasure upon our mountains. With boards and skis ever more agile and fast, staying protected on the slopes is the most important consideration and your snow-sport helmet of choice should be the Oakley Mod5 MIPS. The ASTMF2040/CE EN1077 certified Mod5 blends angles and soft curved shapes to create a visual that hits the cool button and hold it firmly down. The helmet uses the globally recognized and trusted MIPS rotational slip-impact lining, to reduce brain injury by effectively slowing the rotational movement of the head. The unseen tech that saves, is the best sort. To keep the Mod5 in position to do its job a BOA 270 FIT System allows pinpoint precise fit for incredibly stability without pinching or hot-spots. The magnetic Fidlock buckle, seen on many cycling helmets, takes the faff out of strapping the Mod5 on even with your gloves on. Being Oakley eyewear considerations were key when designing the Mod5, so the liner and earflaps and both the modular interchangeable visor brims enable the rider to adapt the fit to suit your favorite goggle style. The brims are also vented to allow warm air to exit your goggle vents and flow unobstructed through the brim for improved anti-fog performance. The shell itself also features adjustable ventilation, so no matter how sizzling your hot-dog moves are, you’ll be cool as a cucumber! The Mod5 is available in Small (51-55cm) / Medium (55-59cm) / Large (59-63cm) sizes, and five colourways (the off-white/grey is our pick), there’s one for everybody.
