Giro Neo Mips II Snow Helmet in Matte Black
Next-Generation All-Mountain Comfort with Refined Aerodynamics & Protection.
The 2026 Giro Neo MIPS II Helmet in Matte Black builds upon the legacy of Giro's iconic resort lid, delivering an upgraded shell architecture, enhanced interior ergonomics, and seamless goggle integration. Engineered with a superlight In-Mold construction that bonds a durable polycarbonate shell directly to the EPS liner, the Neo MIPS II offers heavy-hitting impact absorption without the neck fatigue. Outfitted with the MIPS® Evolve Core Protection System, the updated In Form™ 2 Fit System, and refined Thermostat Control™ venting, this second-generation helmet sets a new benchmark for all-day resort comfort and safety.
Milosport Shop Take
"The original Neo was already one of our best-selling helmets of all time, but the Giro Neo MIPS II takes things to an entirely new level.
Giro refined the head shape and shell profile on the II to sit even lower and sleeker on your head, eliminating any lingering mushroom-head look. The upgraded MIPS® Evolve Core liner sits flush inside the helmet for a noticeably quieter, more seamless fit against your head or beanie. Add in the redesigned In Form™ 2 Fit dial—which is way easier to turn with heavy winter gloves on—and the effortless Thermostat Control™ slider, and you have the ultimate daily driver for riding everything from chilly Brighton powder to warm spring park laps."
