Suomy Apex Riding Helmet – Wood Blue Navy Glossy
Description
The Suomy Apex Riding Helmet in Wood Blue Navy Glossy is a striking fusion of equestrian performance and artisan craftsmanship, designed for riders who refuse to compromise on either safety or style. Each helmet features a genuine blue natural wood finish in a high-gloss lacquer, making every single piece one-of-a-kind - no two wood grains in nature are ever the same. Built around a thermoplastic resin composite shell and Suomy's ultralight technology, this helmet weighs just 520 grams without sacrificing structural integrity or certified protection.
Trusted by world-class show jumper Edwina Alexander, the Apex is engineered to meet the demands of serious competitive and recreational riders alike. Antibacterial, anti-odor, and hypoallergenic inner padding keeps the helmet fresh and comfortable through long rides, while aerodynamic ventilation and a fast-release safety latch round out a feature set built for performance at every level.

FAQ
Is the wood on this helmet real wood?
Yes - the Wood Blue Navy Glossy finish uses genuine natural wood, not a printed or vinyl wrap. Because it's real wood, every helmet has a slightly different grain pattern, making each one completely unique. The wood is finished in a high-gloss lacquer for durability and a polished, show-ready appearance.
What is the difference between the Small Brim and Large Brim styles?
The Small Brim is the men's-cut style with a shorter, more compact brim, while the Large Brim is the women's-cut style with a wider, more traditional equestrian brim. The choice is largely a matter of personal preference and face shape - both styles offer the same safety certification and feature set.
How do I know which size to order?
Suomy helmets are sized in centimeters based on your head circumference. To measure, wrap a soft tape measure around the widest part of your head - just above your eyebrows and ears. If you're between sizes, we generally recommend sizing up for comfort. If you have any questions about fit, feel free to email us at service@omahasportsandgames.com before ordering.
Does this helmet meet U.S. safety standards for equestrian riding?
Yes. The Suomy Apex is certified to both EN 1384:2017 (the current European equestrian helmet standard) and ASTM F 1163-15 (the U.S. standard for equestrian helmets). It is approved for use at competitions governed by organizations that require these certifications.
How long does shipping take?
This helmet is made to order and typically ships within 3-4 weeks. For a more specific delivery estimate or to confirm shipping details, please reach out to us at service@omahasportsandgames.com.
Can I wash the inner padding?
Yes. The inner padding is fully removable and washable, making it easy to keep your helmet fresh and hygienic over time. The antibacterial and anti-odor materials also help maintain freshness between cleanings.
