The Wild Country Movement Climbing Helmet pairs a tough full-ABS hardshell with a one-handed dial fit, at a fair price. It protects against impacts from the top, sides and rear, and adjusts for both circumference and height while it's on your head.

Impact-absorbing EPS foam sits inside the hardshell to absorb and spread energy. Well-positioned vents keep you cooler on long days, the internal padding is removable and washable, and integrated clips hold a headtorch securely for early starts and late finishes. A high front rim leaves space for goggles, glasses or a protective mask. It's certified to EN 12492 and UIAA 106 for climbing and mountaineering, and it's the helmet we'd point a first-time buyer towards without hesitation.
