Route MIPS Helmet

Satisfied with the levels of premium protection it achieved with its Forefront and Overtake helmets, Smith returned to the drawing board to fill more gaps in its helmet line. On the road side, it pared down the impressive silhouette of the Overtake to craft the Route MIPS Helmet. Featuring a lighter shell and the added protection of Multi-Directional Impact Protection System (MIPS), the Route MIPS provides comfort and protection whether you're a fixture in the local race scene or on the bike paths during the commute rush hour.

No one reviews a helmet unless it is uncomfortable, or it saves your life in an accident. I am the latter. I have had this helmet for about 5 years or so. It has been comfortable, not too hot, and the adjustability has been great. I wear it over caps and beanies in the winter. In the end, the helmet did it's job well when I took a high speed crash on the gravel bike. While the accident was sever, the head injuries were minimal. I truly feel I would not be alive to write this review if it wasn't for the helmet. I have already bought another Smith helmet to replace it, and will always be brand loyal to Smith at this point.

not made to last

Familiarity:
I've used it several times

The adjustable fit system broke very soon after putting the helmet to some light use. I never had an impact or exercise use, so I been pretty disappointed with the quality. The fit and weight of the helmet are great though. Airflow was good as well. I do wonder if I just got a defective helmet because I would not expect that level of quality for a helmet.
