4. Abus Spector
Top-notch head protection. Discover the future of industrial climbing with our sporty industrial climbing helmet Spector, which offers extreme comfort and sets new standards in design. Whether working at heights, on construction sites, or in industrial settings, it redefines safety. The Spector is the premium model for your work protection. Whether you are performing maintenance on wind turbines or operating an excavator during demolition work, the Spector offers a new experience in work safety.
The helmet features a robust ABS shell that provides maximum impact resistance and protection against falling objects. An EPS inner shell optimally absorbs shocks and fits comfortably on the head. Thanks to Active Padding and a breathable sweatband, wearing the helmet is comfortable even over extended periods. An innovative and design-optimized helmet geometry with a deep neck area is not only visible from the outside but also felt by the wearer on the inside. A thoughtful ventilation technology, inspired by our helmet expertise from cycling, ensures excellent air circulation. Heat buildup is prevented, and warm air is channeled away through openings in the EPS inner shell.
The EasyFlex adjustment system is also innovative, allowing the helmet to be multifunctional and individually adjustable in 360°. A rotary knob enables precise adjustment of the head ring, while an adjustable neck strap with a comfortable back support ensures a perfect and secure fit. A functional eye-catcher is the clips on the front and back of the helmet for attaching headlamps and full-vision goggles. A side slot, the Euroslot with a width of 30 mm, allows for the attachment of hearing protection. There is also a slot for securing eye and face protection.
5. Black Diamond Helmet Half Dome Women
The Half Dome is named by Black Diamond after one of the most famous mountains in Yosemite National Park. Alongside El Capitan, it is one of the park's landmarks and the perfect namesake for one of Black Diamond's most durable climbing helmets. The helmet shell is made of polycarbonate with large side ventilation slots. The headlamp clips are recessed, providing a secure attachment option. The infinitely adjustable helmet can be perfectly adapted to any head shape. The highlight of this women's helmet is the cutout for a ponytail. Equipped this way, you should definitely add the 25 km trek to the summit of Half Dome, including approximately 1500 meters of elevation gain, to your vacation to-do list.
6. Edelrid Zodiac 3R
Another top model from Edelrid in terms of sustainability! The Zodiac 3R is the premier helmet made from partially recycled materials on the market: The outer shell made of polyamide is produced from recycled climbing ropes from our production, and the inner shell made of EPS is also recycled. This does not compromise safety, comfort, or ventilation in any way. The Zodiac 3R is suitable for mountaineering, climbing, and via ferrata. It features a hybrid construction that offers excellent all-around protection as well as additional protection against side impacts. At the same time, its modern design provides a very large ventilation area, keeping the head cool even in high temperatures.

8. Black Diamond Half Dome Helmet
The Half Dome has always been very popular in the global climbing community. Now, this popular helmet has been equipped with a simpler closure system featuring a one-handed adjustable dial and streamlined headlamp clips for increased comfort and user-friendliness. The revised chin strap enhances efficiency and safety on the rock.
9. Black Diamond Vapor Helmet
Our superlight, go-anywhere helmet got even lighter. The updated Vapor helmet’s two-piece construction contains a layer of super-light ALUULA composite under the polycarbonate crown for added protection and reduced weight. Molded EPP foam makes up the sides, providing ample venting with the same sleek aesthetic. An ultralight cord fi t system makes adjustments and fi t easy to fi ne-tune. Streamlined (and replaceable) headlamp clips are ready for alpine starts or after-dark raps.
10. Petzl Borea
The Borea climbing helmet is new to Petzl's helmet family and is a lightweight all-rounder. Weighing 305 grams, it reliably protects the head during sport climbing, mountaineering, via ferrata, canyoning, and caving. The Borea is a hybrid construction climbing helmet, which means that beneath the hard outer shell, which distributes the impact energy of falling objects, a foam core fits snugly around the head and absorbs shocks and impacts through deformation. This makes the helmet compact in design, fits well on the head, and is very robust. It can be individually adjusted via the flexible headband, and the back is slightly lowered. The design, size, and headband allow for the helmet, specifically designed for women, to be worn comfortably with long hair tied in a ponytail. The large lateral ventilation holes ensure good helmet climate. In addition to protection from impacts from above, Petzl has also equipped the Borea with side impact protection, which provides additional head protection, especially in falls and impacts against rocks or ice.
