Choose the Right Equestrian Riding Hat For You

Choosing the right equestrian riding hat for you is an important decision. Here are some important things to consider.

Safety Standards

It is important to ensure that your chosen helmet meets recognised safety certifications - The PAS 015/BSEN 1384 is the safety standard you should look out for in the UK.

Fit and Size

You should get your head measurements and check the size charts to ensure you get the correct size. Most helmets have adjustable sizing which is often best as you can get a more bespoke fit for all different head sizes. Here at Moore EQ we stock a wide range of helmet sizes. 

Shape

Different brands design helmets for different head shapes. Samshield Helmets are generally for oval heads, but try on different styles and see what feels best for you, whether that is oval shape or round!

Style

After you have checked the safety and fit, you can consider aesthetics. Samfield offer customizable helmets in a variety of colours, finishes and some even with decorative elements like crystals.

Ventilation

Your horse riding helmet should provide airflow to prevent overheating, especially during long riding sessions or competitions when the pressure is on.

Weight

Lighter helmets are more comfortable for long-term use, and many modern helmets are now made from lightweight materials such as polycarbonate. 

Budget

Riding helmets come in a range of prices. While you shouldn’t compromise on safety, you should be able to find a helmet cost to suit your budget.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is it important to wear a riding helmet?

For horse riders, helmets are crucial for protecting you from head injuries during falls or accidents. Equestrian sports are dangerous and even the most skilled riders are at risk of accidents. A protective helmet will absorb impact and reduce the likelihood of serious head injuries.

How should I care for my Samshield helmet?

Your Samshield helmet should be stored in a cool and dry place away from sunlight. Usually the inner liners of helmets are removable so parts of them are machine washable.

How often should I replace my helmet?

To ensure your helmet offers maximum protection, they should be replaced every 3-5 years or immediately after a fall that involves impact.

  • ASTM/SEI (American Standard)
  • VG1 (European Standard)
  • PAS 015 (British Standard)
  • AS/NZS 3838 (Australian and New Zealand Standard)
