Ultimate protection and the perfect balance between lightness and strength
Where some helmets favor robustness at the expense of comfort, the E-LIGHT model revolutionizes equestrian safety. Its 100% carbon fiber outer shell, handmade in Italy using the autoclave method, offers exceptional mechanical resistance to impacts, while remaining feather-light.
This high-tech material gives the helmet the ability to absorb and dissipate the energy of an impact, effectively protecting the skull in a fall or collision. The design includes 3 matte inserts, creating a sleek, refined, and ultra-modern aesthetic — a choice that stands out in every setting.
- Certified Safety: The E-LIGHT helmet meets, and exceeds, the strictest international safety standards (VG1 01.040 2014-12, ASTM F1163 / 2015), offering outstanding penetration resistance and optimal shock absorption, even under extreme conditions.
- Optimized Protection: The internal liner, made of variable-density polystyrene, complements the carbon shell to eliminate unwanted vibrations and provide reliable shielding during all your rides.
- Flexible Visor: Included as standard to protect the eyes and face without breaking in the event of an incident, it safely follows every movement.
Advanced ventilation technology: high-performance comfort
Comfort, essential for performance, is ensured by a cutting-edge ventilation system. Inspired by advanced automotive and aerospace technology, the KEP AIR CONTROL SYSTEM integrates internal channels in the polystyrene to promote continuous airflow. The temperature inside the shell is regulated year-round, minimizing excessive sweating even during intense effort or under the summer sun.
- Intelligent Heat Management: A signature-designed ventilation grid ensures fresh air is always in contact with your scalp and forehead, never compromising protection.
- Efficient Moisture Evacuation: The innovative ventilation circuit keeps your head dry, preventing moisture buildup and enabling extended wear without discomfort.
Whether in competition or training, you benefit from optimal thermal comfort, essential for concentration and freedom of movement.
Ergonomics, fit, and italian refinement
A safety helmet will only be worn regularly if it becomes unnoticeable. Weighing just 535 grams (depending on size), the E-LIGHT puts lightness at the service of rider well-being. Its wide ear openings accommodate all head shapes, while the headband is available in many sizes to ensure a personalized and stable fit.
- Five-Point Chinstrap: Designed in hypoallergenic faux leather, it follows the contours of your face, reduces irritation risk under the chin, and guarantees flawless hold even during dynamic movements. The closure system allows you to adjust the fit to suit any situation.
- Next-Generation Inner Padding: Made from soft, memory foam Coolmax® fabric (from eco-friendly materials), it fits the head perfectly while wicking away perspiration. Its modularity and washable surface — by hand or machine (30°C) — mean you can keep your helmet fresh after each ride.
- Removable Layers: Change, clean, or readjust your helmet’s interior easily for impeccable hygiene and maximum equipment durability, season after season.
The Italian aesthetic shines through the subtle contrast of glossy black and matte inserts, an artisan finish where every detail is meticulously crafted: hand stitching, invisible adjustments, delicately applied logo. The standard visor, wide and flexible, offers protection and elegance without compromising your field of vision.
