Ride with confidence, combining refinement, safety, and innovation with the Charles Owen Kylo Black Crystals helmet. This model brings together protective construction, carefully considered comfort, and an elegant design enhanced by sparkling crystal details. Available with or without MIPS technology, it allows every rider to choose the version that best suits their needs while enjoying Charles Owen's British expertise and a sophisticated finish that stands out in the arena.
Elegance and protection: the Kylo Black Crystals helmet
Much more than just riding equipment, the Kylo Black Crystals is designed for riders seeking reliable protection without compromising on style. Its deep black finish, enhanced by shimmering silver crystals, delicately catches the light and adds a touch of sparkle to any riding outfit. Behind this refined appearance lies a technical construction developed to meet the safety requirements of equestrian sports. Its durable shell and protective internal structure help absorb impact energy in the event of a fall, while its adjustment system provides a precise and comfortable fit.
To suit individual preferences, the helmet is available in two versions: with or without the MIPS system (Multi-directional Impact Protection System). The MIPS version incorporates a low-friction layer that allows slight relative movement inside the helmet during certain angled impacts. This additional technology is designed to reduce rotational forces transmitted to the head. The standard version, without MIPS, retains the Kylo's protective features and safety certifications.
Thanks to these configuration options, the Kylo Black Crystals naturally stands among equestrian helmets that combine technical performance, comfort, and elegance.
Advanced impact absorption technology and compliance with international standards
The Kylo Black Crystals helmet is made from carefully selected technical materials that combine impact resistance with lightweight construction. Its internal structure incorporates a protective layer of expanded polystyrene (EPS), designed to absorb some of the energy generated during an impact. Combined with the outer shell, it helps protect the rider while maintaining a comfortable weight for everyday use.
On the MIPS-equipped version, this protection is complemented by a system designed to manage rotational forces during certain angled impacts. The non-MIPS version benefits from the same attention to construction, ergonomics, and safety requirements. The Kylo meets several international equestrian safety standards, with testing covering impact resistance, helmet stability, and chin strap retention.
Personalised comfort and efficient ventilation
A riding helmet should provide suitable protection while remaining comfortable to wear for several hours. The Kylo Black Crystals has been designed to accompany the rider's movements naturally, thanks to its ergonomic shape and features developed for everyday comfort:
- Precision adjustment dial: Located at the back of the helmet, it allows you to easily adjust the fit to your head circumference for a stable and comfortable feel.
- Adjustable leather-look chin strap: Soft and comfortable against the skin, it provides secure support while adding an elegant finishing touch. Its quick-release buckle makes putting on and removing the helmet easy.
- Removable mesh interior headband: Soft and breathable, it contributes to rider comfort. Machine washable, it makes maintenance easier and helps maintain good hygiene over time.
- Efficient ventilation: Strategically positioned openings and ventilation channels encourage airflow inside the helmet, helping to limit heat build-up during exercise.
Whether you're riding in an indoor arena, taking part in intensive training, competing, or enjoying a long hack, the Kylo Black Crystals provides lasting comfort and ventilation suited to riders' needs.
Versatility and elegance for every discipline
The Charles Owen Kylo Black Crystals stands out for its balance of functionality, refinement, and protection. Its black finish, enhanced by silver crystals, brings a sophisticated touch to dressage arenas, show jumping competitions, and everyday training sessions alike. Two visor styles are available: standard for a classic silhouette or wide for increased sun protection, allowing riders to choose according to their preferences and needs.
The helmet also comes in recycled, FSC-certified cardboard packaging, reflecting Charles Owen's attention to product presentation and packaging materials.
