Alpinestars Youth SM3 Helmet - Solid Matte Black, Small (Part No. 8302225-110-YS)

The Alpinestars Youth SM3 Helmet in a sleek matte black finish offers advanced protection and comfort for young riders. Featuring a thermo-injected shell made from a specialized polymer blend, this helmet combines impact resistance with lightweight performance, ensuring safety without sacrificing comfort. The shell’s varying thickness is engineered for optimal impact absorption, while the impact-resistant thermoplastic construction provides durability for everyday riding. The fit can be customized to the rider’s head shape through interchangeable crown and cheek pads available in different thicknesses, allowing for a tailored and secure fit. The helmet's multi-density inner liner enhances impact absorption in critical areas, reducing the risk of injury while maintaining a lightweight profile for extended wear. The inner and outer surfaces are designed to minimize the effects of oblique impacts, and a low friction coating on the EPS liner acts as a slip plane, mimicking the brain's cerebrospinal fluid to reduce rotational forces during certain impacts. Ventilation is maximized through ten inlets and seven exhaust ports, with the visor designed to channel air into these ports for increased airflow, helping to keep riders cool during intense activity. The visor release system is engineered to release with a pre-determined force, reducing strain on the rider’s neck in the event of impact. Comfort is further enhanced by a liner made from recycled materials, contributing to a lower carbon footprint. Integrated hydration tube channels in the cheek pads allow for easy hydration, while the 25 mm textile chin strap offers optimal safety and comfort. The helmet includes an Emergency Release System and removable cheek pads for safe and easy removal, even when the helmet is worn. The 3D contoured foam lining ensures a comfortable fit, and stainless steel D-rings provide a secure, tight fit to keep the helmet firmly in place during rides.
