Inside the Aether, a dual-density EPS foam liner featuring lightweight, compact Nanobead foam technology helps to manage a wide range of impact energies, while also boasting deep internal channeling to provide cooling airflow. The Aether Spherical MIPS combines an airy, open design with a revolution in rotational energy management to advance head protection for cyclists. Giro began working with MIPS and their helmet designers to come up with a better solution, and the release of the Giro Aether™ Spherical MIPS Helmet, a new generation of integrated protection has seemingly addressed all of the challenges listed above. The challenge was that a MIPS layer had to be assembled between the helmet retention system and the helmet itself- adding weight, taking up more space, impacting airflow, etc. Combined with EPS liners and foam, helmets got safer because while nothing is perfect, MIPS works. Essentially the slip-plane system counters shearing and rotational forces between your head and helmet in event of a crash, ideally reducing injury to the brain. Then came the rolling introduction of slip-plane technology used in the Multi-directional Impact Protection System (MIPS) system, which Giro and others licensed for their use.
Yes, safety too, but until a few years ago we all accepted that the CPSC was regulating essential helmet safety so if it was on the market, it offered that base level of impact protection. Lightweight, easy to adjust, great ventilation, great color selections, looks as nice as possible on my head- all these have likely been your criteria for choosing a helmet.
