Why We Like The Smith Vantage MIPS Helmet
Light and low-profile, the Smith Vantage MIPS Helmet keeps weight down and safety up. Built with rotation-reducing MIPS and energy-absorbing Zonal Koroyd, this piece of protection calms our nerves on tight tree lines, while the low-bulk, ventilated build keeps us comfortably cool while charging hard.

Excellent helmet
Excellent helmet, warm yet it breathes and doesn't overheat. Very comfortable, lightweight and looks great.

Not a good fit for oval shape head
Nice helmet. Wanted to keep it but just didn’t fit my oblong/oval shaped head. I think it’s more geared toward the round shaped heads.

Great protection and comfortable

I upgraded my son to this helmet from a regular Smith Helmet to give him the best protection. He is 18 and the large fits him well. I read they run small, but he has a big head and the large is great. He didn't like that the strap did not have a magnet. I like that is doesn't so if he were to have a fall, the helmet strap will not pop off.

Not For Big Head Club
- Familiarity:
- I returned this product before using it
In fitted hats I’m between 7 7/8 and 8, can go either way depending on manufacturer. My favorite adjustable hats are Alter Ego size XL, which they say are for heads 57-63 cm. I don’t max those out, which goes along with what I get when I measured my head at just over 61 cm. I read reviews that say this Smith helmet runs small, so I ordered the XL, which they claim is for head sizes 63-67 cm. This helmet is too tight on me, and that’s without a balaclava on. I suspect the stated sizes are for the with the padding/insulation removed. I was looking forward to perfect integration with my Smith goggles, but this one is getting sent back.

I bought this helmet for my son in laws 50th birthday. He had picked it out at our local ski shop. Backcountry had the BEST price. He is very pleased that he got exactly what he wanted.

Poppy color isn't red.
I ordered the Matte Poppy/Black colored helmet and when I received it, the color was more of a rose or peach color. The color is definitely not a poppy red like it's shown in the photo. I have a red ski jacket that I was hoping to match and the helmet wasn't even close to being red. So I returned it and ate the shipping back to Backcountry. The fit is also definitely more round than the oval it used to be years ago.

Everything in one helmet

I was looking for a new helmet and the Vantage had everything. #1-Ventilation, the Vantage has two separate vent levers and they both have two settings, open, half and closed. So you have lots of different settings for your needs and they are easy to operate. #2-MIPS and Koyroid, safe and light nuff said. #3-Removable ear pads for spring time. Kind of tricky due to BOA wire, but you can get it done. #4 BOA fit dial for perfect size. #5- Mini visor for just enough coverage and perfect fit with Smith goggles. The terra matte color is a little strange, but so am I. Couldn't pass on the great price. Very happy with helmet.
