Materials for optimum safetyThe outer shell of the Samshield helmet is made of high quality polycarbonate. The inner shell is made of polystyrene with variable density providing a better dissipation of the energy produced upon impact.

StabilityThe internal comfort ‘‘memory’’ foam liner ensures a constant thickness over the years of use and the semi-rigid jugular cancels out all risks of tipping the helmet in case of a violent movement.This internal comfort foam liner is removable and washable repeatedly thanks to a clip system.

Perfect size adjustment for unmatched comfortA thorough anthropomorphic study led to the design of an inner-shell form liner generating an unmatched comfort.Three shell sizes are available (M, L, XL). Each shell can accommodate 5 to 6 inner foam liners of different sizes (from 52 to 64) in order to obtain a perfect adjustment to the rider’s head.With this system, it is also possible to follow the growth of a young rider.

Powerful internal airflowSamshield helmets provides exceptional ventilation.Fresh air flows from the front entrance to the back extractors around comfort foam which prevents sweating.

The outer shell of the Premium helmet is equipped with original Alcantara®.

The polycarbonate external shell and the variable density inner shell polystyrene provide a better dissipation of the energy produced in case of impact.

The chin strap of the Premium helmet is made of genuine leather.

Equipped with two front air inlets, the Premium helmet provides exceptional ventilation. Fresh air flows from both the front entrance under the blazon as well as the channel obtained by the unique concept of no contact on the rider’s forehead. Fresh air expels the hot air to the back extractors around the comfort foam liner, making sweating impossible!

The Premium is delivered with a removable and washable inside comfort liner (clip system fixation) and a transport backpack.The Premium is available with ‘‘dressage chin strap’’ option: neck part with reduced length in order to obtain more room for the hair bun.

High quality materialsIt is at Samshield’s workshop, which is located in France, that the helmets are meticulously assembled, tested, refined and sometimes customized before being shipped to their rider.

To cover the outer shells, which are made of high quality polycarbonate which is also used for premium motorcycle helmets, Samshield uses noble materials such as genuine Alcantara®, classic or exotic leathers (python, lizard, stingray, crocodile) or Crystal Fabric Swarovski®.

Particular attention to detail is made when selecting exotic leathers. It is the same process used by many of the biggest French leather merchants to ensure the leather selected is that of humane processes.

A real know-howThe Swarovski® stones setting is also made in the Samshield workshop. The Swarovski® crystals are clinched one by one on the helmets. This operation needs two hours of goldsmith work.

On request the workshop is able to print the name of the rider on the helmet chin strap.

Those manual assemblies ensure strengthened security and high quality finish.

Customizations can be done on a helmet which has already been purchased and used*.

*This service is not possible on the helmets over 5 years old** or on the SEI/ASTM certified helmets (North America).

**The CE helmet standards obliges to renew any helmet over 5 years old in order to avoid any eventual failure of the plastics resistance capacity.

In case of violent impact to your helmet we suggest you to send it back to Samshield’s workshop.

When received it will be totally examined in order to determine if the helmet has sustained damage.

Depending on the damage observed we will propose:• either to replace damaged parts (renovation package*);• either to proceed to a full exchange of the helmet at a recommended price (a quotation will be proposed).

Obviously Samshield helmets have a one year warranty in case of defect.

*This is a service which is proposed for the 5 first years** of a Samshield helmet. This is not a warranty. This ‘‘renovation’’ package includes time spent, spare parts and freight charge.

This service is not possible on the SEI/ASTM version helmet (North America).

**The CE helmet standards obliges to renew any helmet over 5 years old in order to avoid any eventual failure of the plastics resistance capacity.

To clean the outer shell of the helmets (Shadowmatt or Premium Alcantara) it is recommended to use cleaning wipes or simply a wet sponge with natural soap. Helmets should be left to dry naturally.

To maintain the leather top and strap of the Premium helmets, it is recommended to use boot polish with silicone (that will waterproof the leather).

To clean the liner it is possible to use a washing machine but the best way is to hand wash with soap because it doesn’t need a 30’/1h washing program!

Always inspect the inside and outside of the helmet as well as the chin strap before and after use. When the helmet is not use, it should be stored away from the light. The helmet should never be exposed to temperatures lower than -20°C or higher than +50°C.

Any contact with corrosive or aggressive substances should be avoided. Use solvents can alter the characteristics of the helmet and compromise its quality.

The life-span* of the helmet will depend on its careful maintenance and use.

Gloves are hand washable and machine washable (30° maxi) with a mild soap.Is is strongly recommended to not use a tumble dryer.

*The CE helmet standards obliges to renew any helmet over 5 years old in order to avoid any eventual failure of the

plastics resistance capacity.
