Smith Nexus MIPS Helmet

The 2027 Smith Nexus MIPS is Smith's most advanced snow helmet design, combining complete Koroyd® coverage, an impact-enhancing exoskeleton, Mips® protection, and a hybrid shell with the precision of the BOA® 360 Fit System.

Maximum Protection for Serious Mountain Days

• Complete Koroyd® Coverage: Provides lightweight, energy-absorbing, and ventilated impact protection throughout the helmet.
• Exoskeleton Protection: Enhances impact protection in key side-impact zones for an additional level of coverage.
• Mips® Brain Protection System: Uses a low-friction layer designed to help reduce harmful forces that may otherwise transfer to the head during certain angled impacts.
• Hybrid Shell Construction: Combines a durable hardshell exterior with lightweight in-mold construction for a balance of durability, coverage, and low-profile performance.
• BOA® 360 Fit System: Adapts around the entire head and provides on-the-fly micro-adjustability with the turn of a dial.
• 24-Vent Climate Control: Adjustable front and rear vents let you regulate airflow as mountain conditions and activity levels change.
• Fidlock® Strap Buckle: Offers convenient one-handed operation for easy fastening and release.
• AirEvac™ Integration: Integrates with Smith goggles to promote airflow and help keep lenses fog-free.
