Giro Aether Spherical MIPS helmet

Impact is everything

The Aether MIPS combines an airy, open design with a revolution in rotational energy management to advance head protection for cyclists. Inside the Aether, a dual-density EPS foam liner helps manage a wide range of impact energies, while also boasting deep internal channeling to provide cooling airflow.

A Giro's proprietary MIPS Spherical technology is integrated between the layers of EPS foam – instead of against the rider’s head – giving riders the benefits of MIPS without obstruction to comfort or cooling power.

The stunning silhouette is formed by a sleek six-piece shell that surrounds a series of massive vents, with added structural reinforcement via a shatter-resistant AURA reinforcing arch. The final touch is a Roc Loc ® 5+ Air fit system, featuring 3-way fit tuning, that allows for easy adjustment in seconds.

Technologies

6-Pieces Shell
The stunning silhouette is created by merging six individual pieces of polycarbonate around a series of massive vents.

AURA reinforcing arch
Structural integrity is bolstered by the shatter-resistant and translucent AURA reinforcing arch that runs throughout the helmet.

Deep Internal Channeling
Combined with the massive vents, internal channeling forces air to flow over the scalp, providing remarkable cooling power.

MIPS Spherical
MIPS Spherical was designed with the goal of reducing energy during an impact. With MIPS Spherical two layers of EPS foam become the essential components of the slip-plane system. This may provide more protection without any obstruction to comfort or ventilation. This elegant design allows the Aether’s exterior liner/helmet shell to rotate independently around your head during an angled impact and may result in a reduction of rotational forces.

Nanobead EPS foam
To acheive a sleek and slim silhoutte without compromising protection standats, the Aether utilizes a micro-bead expanded polystyrene.

Roc Loc® 5-Plus
In addition to retention adjustment on the ergonomic and compact dial, riders can adjust vertical positioning and tune the contact points asymmetrically.
