FAQ
How do I choose the right helmet size?
Measure the circumference of your head in centimeters just above your eyebrows and ears - this is your helmet size. The Suomy Apex is available in sizes 52 through 62 cm. If you are between sizes, we generally recommend sizing up and adjusting with the inner padding for a snug, secure fit. Feel free to email us at service@omahasportsandgames.com if you need help selecting the right size.
What is the difference between the Small Brim and Large Brim styles?
The Small Brim is a shorter, more compact style traditionally associated with men's equestrian helmets, offering a streamlined silhouette. The Large Brim has a wider, more dramatic brim traditionally associated with women's equestrian helmets. Both styles offer identical safety ratings and features - the difference is purely in the brim size and aesthetic profile.
Is the natural wood finish durable?
Yes. The natural wood detailing on the Suomy Apex is applied as part of the helmet's exterior finish and is designed to withstand regular equestrian use. The matte coating helps protect the wood grain surface. As with any premium helmet, avoid exposing it to prolonged direct sunlight or extreme temperatures when not in use.
Can I wash the inner padding?
Yes - the inner padding of the Suomy Apex is fully removable and washable. Simply remove the pads and hand wash them with mild soap and water, then allow them to air dry completely before reinserting. Regular cleaning helps maintain the antibacterial and anti-odor properties of the materials.
Is this helmet approved for competition?
The Suomy Apex carries both EN 1384:2017 and ASTM F 1163-15 safety certifications, which are widely accepted standards for equestrian competitions. However, certification requirements can vary by organization and discipline, so we recommend verifying with your specific governing body before competing.
