Entirely made in Italy, this premium helmet will quickly become an essential ally for anyone who refuses to compromise—neither on safety nor elegance. On the market, the selection of equestrian helmets makes it easy to compare this outstanding model with other renowned options.
Cutting-edge protection for every rider
The Kep Cromo 2.0 Matte goes far beyond conventional standards. Its outer shell, crafted from injection-molded polycarbonate, achieves a perfect balance of lightness and strength, ensuring optimal shock absorption even in the event of a hard impact. Inside, the helmet features polystyrene foam with specifically designed ventilation channels to instantly dissipate the force of blows while maximizing air circulation. Staying true to KEP's demanding standards, this model is fully certified according to VG1 01.040 2014-12 and ASTM F1163 / 2015—some of the strictest safety standards in the world.
A true protective cocoon, the KEP Cromo 2.0 Matte makes no compromises between strength and lightness—it’s so lightweight (around 535 grams) that you’ll barely notice it on your head, yet it fully protects the skull thanks to an ergonomic design that perfectly hugs every head shape.
Ventilation and comfort: a new benchmark in riding
Forget stifling or uncomfortable helmets: the KEP Cromo 2.0 Matte redefines the standards with its KEP Air Control System. A network of graceful, differentiated air intakes channels airflow through numerous internal ducts, effectively cooling the scalp year-round. Internal temperature regulation and efficient heat dissipation foster optimal riding conditions, no matter the intensity or duration of your activity.
The inner padding, fully removable, machine washable, and made from eco-friendly memory foam Coolmax® fabric, perfectly contours to the shape of your head and ensures a soft feel—even during long sessions. This promotes daily hygiene and extends the helmet’s lifespan.
Finally, the supple genuine leather chinstrap, hand-stitched, provides optimal support with five attachment points: impeccable stability and unrivaled comfort, even during the most dynamic movements.
Advanced customization and elegant design
The modular technology of the Kep Cromo 2.0 Matte unlocks creativity and true personalization. Thanks to an ingenious mechanical interlocking system, the front and rear elements, as well as the visor, can be swapped out by the rider—even after purchase. Change your helmet’s appearance as often as you like, whether to follow trends, match your mood, or suit your discipline! Whether you choose the understated matte black, or want to add splashes of color or a hand airbrushed design, every helmet becomes unique—just like its owner.
The wide, flexible standard visor can also be replaced, adapting to every rider’s preference and face shape. This essential feature combines aesthetics, weather protection, and perfect visibility.
The refined design of the Cromo 2.0, enhanced by the subtle contrast of matte finishes and an elegant ventilation grid, suits every riding style—from classic to contemporary. The helmet comes with an additional jockey visor and a carrying bag, ensuring you have a complete set from your very first ride.
Connected innovation for your safety
Pushing boundaries even further, KEP integrates an invisible NFC chip into the Cromo 2.0 Matte, discreetly placed beneath the helmet’s front element. Acting as a digital ID, this chip allows—after installing the dedicated KEP app—you to store all essential medical information. In an emergency, first responders are instantly informed of your specific needs, speeding up care and enhancing your safety wherever you ride.
