FAQ
What is the difference between the Small Brim and Large Brim styles?
The Small Brim is considered the Men's style and features a shorter, more compact brim for a streamlined profile. The Large Brim is the Women's style with a wider, more traditional equestrian brim. Both styles are available in the same sizes and offer identical safety and feature sets - the choice comes down to personal preference and aesthetic.
What safety certifications does this helmet meet?
The Suomy Apex HNT meets four internationally recognized safety standards: EN 1384:2017 (European), ASTM F 1163-15 (American), VG1 01.040 2014-12, and PAS 015:2011 (British). This broad certification makes it approved for use across virtually all major equestrian disciplines and competitions worldwide.
How do I clean the helmet's inner padding?
The inner padding is fully removable and washable. Simply detach it from the helmet shell and follow the care instructions provided. Regular washing helps maintain the antibacterial and anti-odor properties of the lining, keeping the helmet fresh and hygienic over time.
How do I find my correct helmet size?
Suomy helmets are sized in centimeters (52-62 cm). To find your size, use a soft measuring tape and measure the circumference of your head about one inch above your eyebrows - the widest part of your skull. Match that measurement in centimeters to the available sizes. If you are between sizes, we generally recommend sizing up and using the inner padding to achieve a snug, secure fit.
Is this helmet suitable for all equestrian disciplines?
Yes. The Suomy Apex HNT is described as suitable for every kind of discipline. Its multi-certification safety rating ensures it meets the requirements for dressage, show jumping, eventing, trail riding, and more. Always confirm with your specific governing body that the certifications align with their rules before competing.
When should an equestrian helmet be replaced?
You should replace your helmet after any significant impact or fall, even if no visible damage is present. The internal foam and shell are designed to absorb energy during a crash, which can compromise their integrity invisibly. Most manufacturers also recommend replacing helmets every 3-5 years due to natural degradation of materials over time, regardless of impact history.
