Smith Vida Mips® Women’s Snow Helmet

Why You’ll Love the Vida Mips®

• Women’s-specific all-mountain design: Built just for women, the Vida Mips® blends a sleek, low-profile shape with a fit and feel tuned for all-day resort laps, sidecountry missions, and everything in between.
• Lightweight in-mold construction: An in-mold polycarbonate shell fused to an EPS foam liner keeps the helmet light and low-profile while still delivering dependable impact protection.
• Zonal KOROYD® protection: Strategically placed KOROYD® panels provide lightweight, ventilated impact absorption where you need it most, helping manage energy from direct hits.
• Mips® Brain Protection System: Integrated Mips® adds a low-friction layer inside the helmet designed to reduce rotational forces from angled impacts.
• Regulator climate control: A simple slider lets you open or close the vents with one hand, so you can dump heat on the bootpack and lock in warmth on cold storm days.
• Precise VaporFit Snow™ dial: The VaporFit Snow™ adjustment system offers 270° of micro-adjustable fit with a quick turn of the rear dial for a secure, custom-feeling fit.
• Fog-fighting AirEvac™ ventilation: Smith’s AirEvac™ system channels warm air out of your goggles and through the helmet, helping keep lenses clear even on wet, heavy-snow days.
• Cozy, audio-ready ear pads: Removable, audio-compatible ear pads add plush warmth and are ready for drop-in audio (sold separately) when you want tunes or comms.
• Clean Smith goggle integration: Designed to work seamlessly with Smith goggles for a gap-free look, dialed comfort, and efficient venting.
