Why We Like The Code MIPS Helmet
Featuring a low-profile in-mold design, the Code doesn't skimp on durability while creating a lightweight product. The polycarbonate shell and EPS liner bring us a high level of protection, with an incorporated Koroyd material that aids in impact absorption as well as airflow. The MIPS System uses slip-plane technology, reducing rotational force common in angular impacts, while tons of ventilation regulates airflow to keep us from overheating.

So far so good
I recently got this helmet and so far it's been great. One big complaint I have is that while it says it's compatible with the Aleck audio systems, once I put the chips into the liner and remove the foam, it's way too tight and my ears get pressed into my head in a uncomfortable way. I was looking forward to using this with my Ski Patrol radio in that aspect, but alas. Still a great helmet and a beautiful color.

The fit is very comfortable.
The fit is very comfortable. The integration with SMITH goggles is perfect and adds to the comfortable fit. As for protection, well I haven’t tested it but trust SMITH with my safety on snow, single track and road!

My favorite helmet so far
- Familiarity:
- I've put it through the wringer
I have finally found the perfect helmet! You can remove the liner inside which is a frequent question for this type of helmet. It is a very light helmet and looks swaggy as well.

Too Small, NO REFUNDS
Helmet was too small and Backcountry will not provide me a refund back onto my card because of the box that I shipped this product in which was the exact same box I received it in. DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS WEBSITE

Great helmet, so so Aleck chips integration
The helmet is very solid. Everything you'd expect from a good winter helmet. However, with the way the ear pads are designed, it is really uncomfortable with the aleck wireless helmet speakers to the point I don't use them at all. A bit disappointing since the product itself is good, just don't think the adequate space was given to fully claim "comfortable compatibility "

Works beautifully with my Mag goggles
Works beautifully with my Mag goggles. Hiked in the backcountry at 12k+ altitude without ever taking off my goggles and NEVER fogged up. I strongly believe it was because of the helmet/goggle integration. Highly recommend.

I went 35 years without
I went 35 years without wearing a helmet consistently, they were always too bulky and heavy. I'm old and ready to wear a helmet and the code was so light that I didn't even know I was wearing it. The sizing is a little smaller than the Smith MTB helmets with the padding and ear flaps. Once I took those out I would say the sizing is spot on with my other Smith MTB helmets. If I'm going to wear a helmet, this one looks pretty cool too.
