BACKLINE VISOR | Ski Helmet | Adjustable Ventilation | Removable Ear Pads| ABS Shell | Visor Cat. 3

Great ski helmet, I have now used this for two separate week long skiing holidays. It can be a little tight getting on to your head as the side protection area is designed to cup over your ears, but just bend them outwards to ease it on. Once on, it is a great fit once adjusted, snug but very comfortable, and the chin strap is well padded, a with a quick release Latch. The visor is the main benefit as it is really well designed, and never suffers from fogging even on the coldest days. Overall, it completely beats using a separate helmet and goggles, and being so easy to just raise or lower while still skiing makes it an obvious choice really, I just wish I had got this years ago, and I highly recommend it. Incidentally, it comes supplied with a dark and yellow tinted visor, so you are covered for all conditions, and change out is quick and easy. So far, I’ve only used the yellow tinted visor, which is still unmarked after taking a fair battering over it’s 12 days of use and transport, so I expect it withstand a lot of abuse before needing replacement.

I switched to a Visor helmet from googles for the first time this year and have to say that it was a very positive experience. The two visors supplied are easy to change. The Yellow visor was used most and was great for low to bright light. The grey visor was good for bluebird days, but was an issue when skiing in the afternoon shadows. I used yellow mainly and had no issues. The helmet is well made, good looking and fit perfectly using the size chart. a definite upgrade from goggles and hired helmet.

Just received this helmet, and I have to say, it's a really nice headgear. Seems well-built, and quite comfortable to wear. Chin strap fits nicely, while the adjustment knob on the back gives the helmet a good snug fit. Air vent opens and shut with a quick slide on the top. It came with 2 visors. The dark UV visor (it has a reflective coating, not just plain UV dark) for sunny days is pre-installed, while the yellow visor for cloudy days comes wrapped in foam tissue inside a plastic zip bag. Based on previous reviews regarding the gap on the top of the visor letting snow in, Bolle may have addressed that issue. Both of my visors came with foam tape lining the inner top edge of the visor. When the visor is down, the foam liner seals the gap between helmet and visor. Visors are easily interchanged by unscrewing the round knob. Helmet comes with a soft bag. Overall, it was a good, sound purchase.

Brilliant service - delivered the next day at 7:45 am. Excellent quality ski helmet for the price. Great fit, very comfortable with easy adjustment and quick release chin strap. Smooth and sturdy visor movement. Comes with spare 'low light' visor lens and cloth protective bag. Would certainly recommend.

I have just come back from 7 days using this helmet in a range of weather conditions. the helmet fits well and is warm and comfortable - air vents were only just adequate at warm air temperatures (around 5/6 degrees C). My helmet came with Grey and yellow visor. Simple to change. Yellow was great in cloudy conditions, and the dark visor was good in sun. Built in visor allows for excellent peripheral vision and it never steamed up. Only complaint is that the visor has no seal around the top edge. This meant that when it was snowing, or when there was wind blown snow, it frequently got in behind the visor, obstructing vision, and required removing the helmet to clean. I will be buying some adhesive backed foam tape to stick to the visors top edge which should seal against the helmet and stop this happening.

This is a really good quality ski helmet and it comes with two visors so that you can ski in the Sun and low light. I wasn’t sure how I get on with something coming down like this over my face having been used to wearing goggles or sunglasses. I’m happy to report that I love this helmet and the fact that I don’t have to fiddle around when I want to remove device, all I have to do is push it up much prefer this to goggles or sunglasses. The helmet is really comfortable and stylish.

Used this for the first time @ Whistler - Canada over the December '15 / January '16 holiday. Thought i'd share my thoughts regarding the helmet in the hopes it will help you when making your own decision on whether or not to purchase this or something similar :) My head size is 59 - for those wondering what size to get for your noggin - never choose a helmet that is, say, 56 - 59 if your head size is 59. You will regret it. Always go one size up. A. with the click to fit system you can easily adjust the fit to sit snugly on your noggin, and B. for those cold days when you need to wrap your snood around your head (or wear a full hoodie) the extra space of the helmet will definitely help you, where-as your head would already be hurting if you'd not super-sized your helmet! Thankfully though i didn't have this problem with Bolle since my noggin size fell into the 59 - 61 category. The helmet itself is relatively soft and comfortable for its price. I've tried on more comfortable helmets to be honest, with a premium price tag to go along with it. But for the price of this helmet i was happy enough. The ear pads are lovely and soft. It's worth noting that the entire time i wore the helmet i didn't use the chin strap. I hate the feeling of straps under my chin. I mention this only because never once did it fall off.. even during my more entertaining wipe-outs in the snow park! As a glasses wearer (and of the slightly large nerd variety) this helmet allows me to wear them in absolute comfort. I had no problems with general fogging of my glasses either. I found this only tended to happen when i had my snood pulled up over my head and nose (so my hot breath leaking into the visor) or when i tried to cover the gaps (but more on this later!) The two Visor choices are a must, and a fantastic addition by Bolle! My advice: never purchase a helmet if they don't include a low visibility visor. That's a deal-breaker right there. Think i'm being over dramatic? Wait til the first time you use it - you will be nodding your head with a stupid grin on your face, marveling at the clarity and brightness.. going; 'that crazy fool on amazon was damn right! this visor is awesome!!' On clear (non snowing) days this helmet deserves a 7 out of 5. The padding on the visor sits perfectly over the bridge of your nose. It's a combination of ventilated plastic and soft padding that sticks out a centimeter and a half to two centimeters, and seals along the bridge of the nose and cheek bones all the way along the rubber that is visible from the outside (as a visual reference to you if you look at the picture again). There is a padded seal at the top of the visor as well that does a good job of sealing itself when the visor is fully down. Having a full unobstructed view of everything around you is worth the price of this helmet alone! Not having the pressure of goggles pressing against your face is even better. Trust me when i say - It. Is. Great. The helmet does not move around when you snowboard (i assume skiing would have the same result), and the vents do a great job at cooling (open) or retaining heat (closed). The temps dropped to - 15 degrees on some days - so the vents definitely did its job well ;) Snowy conditions is where the visor option falls somewhat short of its 5 star rating. Because it does not completely seal around your face snow will get into the visor and will require a quick cleaning every now and then. Taping up the gaps works - but produces the problem of steaming and fogging of the glasses - which is just swapping one set of problems for another. I did have my goggles to hand, but to be honest i never got frustrated enough to take the visor off and use them. It also only snowed for about 4 days. Aside from that one negative there's just far too many positives to having a visor helmet (personally) to not give it 5 stars. I am very happy i took the plunge. The range of visibility, the freedom of not having goggles pressed around your eyes, and the low vis visor for those overcast days are a no brainer. Ps. i went the blue and black. My friend went for the white. Both looked really good, though personally we both liked the blue visor of my helmet over the grey of his :)

Bought this based on the reviews together with balancing this up against the relative cost of buying decent googles and a helmet separately. Really pleased with the purchase both in quality, practicality and value. The helmet is both comfortable and warm when required, but the real surprise were the visors. The breadth of visibility was excellent (for someone who really only used sunglasses to date) as well as the quality of the visor lenses themselves. I used both in bright and flat light and they were excellent, in particular flat light where it can be much harder to see the lumps and bumps of the slopes but the grey visor was a revelation in visibility and resultant confidence! Excellent product!

Very comfortable and convenient with the high quality lenses

Der Helm ist top verarbeitet und kommt im Verhältnis zu Modellen von Konkurrenzherstellern sehr schlank und sportlich daher (eine optische Alternative ist ggf. der Uvex hlmt 500). Die beiden Visiere sind angenehm gefärbt/getönt und passen tiptop. Toll ist auch, dass die Ohren durch die Ohrabdeckungen vollständig umschlossen werden und die Abdeckung nicht einfach nur aufliegt. Damit sind die Ohren vollständig umschlossen. Es fühlt sich an, wie bei Overear-Kopfhörern. Ich habe einen Kopfumfang von 58,5 cm und habe deswegen die Größe 59-61 bestellt. Der Helm fällt tatsächlich sehr klein aus - wie auch andere Käufer schon geschrieben haben. Leider passte meine Kopfform nicht optimal in den Helm, weshalb ich letztendlich zum UVEX hlmt 600 gegriffen habe. Diesen fand ich letztendlich schlicht bequemer und die Sicht durch das Visier gefiel mir etwas besser (was aber nicht heißen soll, dass es beim Bollé nicht auch super ist). Hätte die Passform des Bollé auf meinen Kopf gestimmt, hätte ich definitiv den Bollé vorgezogen. Optisch und funktional (Ohrenschutz) fand ich den Bollé im Verhältnis zum hlmt 600 besser. Außerdem darf man das zweite mitgelieferte Visier nicht außer acht lassen. Wenn der Kopf in diesen Helm passt - absolute Kaufempfehlung!

Muy buena elección. A un precio por debajo de 150€ es de las mejores opciones. Es una marca que nunca defrauda y hace productos de calidad Buen ajuste, cómodo, sistema de ajuste trasero y correa muy preciso La visera oscura sirve en días soleados y nublados y puedes llevar gafas de ver debajo sin ningún problema, salvo que aprietan en la oreja la patilla como cuando se llevan gafas en cualquier casco de moto, esquí, etc Trae otra visera clara que no se si se llegará a usar.....solo para días muy oscuros y no he probado a ver si el cambio es rápido o sencillo. Lo que no veo práctico es llevar las dos viseras en el mismo día pues la forma de la visera molesta al llevarla en la mochila

Fits like a glove, and has not fogged up at all. MUCH more comfortable than having to wear goggles. I wear glasses, and have had no problems at all.

Premetto che l'ho appena acquistato e per tale motivo le mie considerazioni sono tratte dalle prove fatte in casa e non sulla pista ! Parto col dire che darei 6-7 stelle allo stile perché è veramente stupendo ! A parte questa "introduzione", vorrei soffermarmi innanzitutto sulla qualità che trasmette semplicemente toccandolo, si capisce subito che è un prodotto realizzato con attenzione e cura maniacale dei dettagli, sia sul meccanismo di apertura e chiusura della visiera (che ha tre posizioni) che risulta duro "il giusto", così da evitare che si possa accidentalmente aprire o chiudere, sia sulla fibbia di chiusura, che non è la solita clip ma un gancio a scorrimento che consente una regolazione di fine anche indossando i guanti... La calotta in ABS è morbida al tatto e prevede una leva per aprire/chiudere le prese d'aria superiori. Molto comoda anche la regolazione alla base della nuca permettendo una regolazione di fine del casco rispetto alla testa, idem per il cinturino al mento che insieme alla fibbia di chiusura consentono di trovare la giusta regolazione senza mai dare fastidio. La visiera (in realtà ce ne sono due) è un vero spettacolo, sia per quanto riguarda la comodità sia per quanto riguarda il campo visivo enorme (probabilmente questa sensazione è data dal fatto che ho sempre usato le classiche maschere da sci) lasciando praticamente vedere tutto, esattamente come quando si scia senza maschera. Molto ben realizzata anche la parte in spugna inferiore della visiera (quella che normalmente appoggia sugli zigomi) morbida e a differenza di quanto accade con le maschere da sci, non genera molta pressione sul viso (cosa che a me da parecchio fastidio). Alla base della visiera (lato basso) ci sono due griglie per far passare l'aria ed evitare che la visiera si appanni e a differenza di altri prodotti simili presenta anche una leggera striscia di spugna anche nella parte alta, utile (penso) per evitare l'ingresso di aria e per evitare che la visiera (quando aperta) graffi il casco. Per il momento, l'unico neo che ho notato è che la parte interna non è smontabile e quindi per la pulizia è necessario procedere direttamente sul casco. Per me non è un gran problema, perché di solito uso bombolette spray detergenti proprio per evitare di dover smontare ogni volta le parti interne. Il peso, nonostante sia dichiarato pari a 650 grammi una volta indossato sembra molto più leggero e confrontandolo con il mio vecchio casco che pesava solo 450 grammi non ho notato nessuna differenza. Va anche precisato normalmente oltre al casco uso la visiera e scommetto che sommando i due pesi si ottiene lo stesso valore... Sono decisamente soddisfatto, era da tempo che cercavo una soluzione che includesse la visiera (e non perchè porti gli occhiali da vista) più comoda della maschera da sci classica ed al contempo pratico ed elegante ! Per il momento non ho altro da aggiungere, mi riprometto di aggiornare la recensione dopo avero provato sul campo ! Piccola nota: Questo caso l'ho acquistato su Amazon WareHouse, venduto come "USATO - COME NUOVO" al prezzo di 66 € (praticamente la metà del prezzo originale) ed effettivamente a parte la scatola che presenza evidenti segni il casco all'interno è assolutamente nuovo e come si può vedere dalla fotografie non ha alcune segno, le visiere presentano ancora le pellicole protettive originali. In definitiva: PRO - Design molto bello (lo so che questo è un parametro soggettivo) - Grande qualità costruttiva e dei materiali - Comodo da indossare - Regolazione interna efficace - Materiali di alta qualità e piacevoli al tatto - Due visiere fornite (la classica per i giorni di sole più quella per i giorni con scarsa visibilità) - Sacca porta-casco morbida - Prese d'aria con meccanismo di chiusura - Fibbia con apertura/chiusura semplificata (anche con guanti indossati) CONTRO - Imbottitura interna non smontabile Spero che questa recensione vi sia stata utile.
