Features

  • Innovative design guarantees the perfect fit, all-round protection and ease of use
  • Improved fit for added comfort: woom perfected the fit and comfort of this helmet by referring to thousands of scans of children's heads
  • Comes in 3 sizes for kids aged 1 to 14
  • Every size now has its own inner shell designed for kids of the right age so that it feels even more comfortable and sits perfectly on your child's head
  • Ultra-low shell protects the top of the head, forehead, temples and back of the head, too—so you can rest assured that your child's head is protected all around
  • Flexible visor is an innovative feature that acts as a sun and rain shield, while providing protection for your child's face if they fall off their bike
  • You can count on the helmet to absorb the impact thanks to its energy-absorbing material and special structure
  • Sizable ventilation holes and internal air channels help cool your child's head—even on their most epic active adventures
  • Size adjustment system inside the helmet goes all the way around the head now so you can adjust the fit to perfection
  • Adjustment system is a padded ring that wraps around the head: Simply turn the robust, nonslip size adjustment dial to tighten or loosen the ring
  • Pads inside the helmet are made of a soft, absorbent material that doesn't have scratchy edges or awkward seams
  • Take the pads out when you need to wash them and pop them back in when they're dry; woom recommends swashing them by hand and leaving them to air dry
  • Magnetic clasp on the chin strap is so easy to open and close that your child will manage without any problems, even if they're only using one hand and wearing gloves
  • The pinch-free clasp ensures your child's skin and hair are safe, too
  • Reflective features—the logo on each side, the 2 straps, and the detailing on the size adjustment dial—help keep your child visible, even in dark or foggy conditions
  • Boost visibility by adding a rechargeable LED rear light to the helmet; compatible with the READY Helmet Light (rear light not included)
  • This bike helmet is also ideal for roller skating and scooters

Disappointing (waste of money)

Not long after buying this helmet my son grazed the visor on a ledge at the park (no big deal). However, not only did that minor incident take a gouge out of the foam visor, it also disconnected the basket of the helmet from the shell. This was concerning because if a minor incident led to this disconnection, what would happen in an actual crash and how would that protect my child’s head? Doubly disappointing because REI stated it’s a one time use item and cannot be refunded. I’m not sure why woom would choose to make the entire visor out of foam, but I will be avoiding such construction in the future. Very happy with the woom bikes and very unhappy with the woom helmets.

Solid kids helmet

I bought this helmet for my 2 year old daughter - she loves wearing this and riding her bike. It offers excellent back of head protection, is easily adjustable, is easy to put on and take off, and stores easily. I haven't experienced any durability issues so far. This is the third child bike helmet I've bought - I also purchased the previous version of this helmet from Woom. I think they've improved upon the ear loops (reflective and a slightly more comfortable cording), the magnetic chin strap clasp, and the adjustment dial. I'm not a fan of the new foam visor design, but haven't had an problems so far.

Poorly Designed

Very disappointed with the construction and durability of this helmet. Based on reviews others have had the same issue with the visor being a very weak point. Our broke the week we got it. REI would not return or return stating it is not a manufacturing issue but I disagree especially based on these other reciews (that I wish we had read before purchasing)

Very well thought out, excellent coverage

We have lots of kids’ helmets and some that are theoretically safer, with dual-density EPS, MIPS, Wavecel, carbon fiber — POC, Specialized, Sweet Protection, Bontrager.. But the attention to detail in this deceptively simple helmet is so kid-friendly, so easy for a 4 year old to put on and take off, and the head coverage is better than anything we have that’s not full-face. The ratchet on the back is so easy for my son to adjust it — big, textured, audible clicks, totally locks the helmet in place, and the no-pinch buckle is perfect. I got this as my son’s second helmet after he wound up in the hospital after taking a hard fall on a scooter at school recess. He went over the handlebars at recess on his bike with this helmet and gave it a big thumbs up. I carefully inspected the foam for any damage, because I’m happy to pick up another when needed but it still looked good. Woom’s first helmets failed Consumer Reports testing, and with this second try they nailed it. Cons: Not dual density EPS. Pros: Everything else. However, there is ONLY one kids' helmet on the market that is e-bike certified (NTA 8776) and this isn’t it. That's the Ozmo Sidekick. We just bought 2 of them but haven’t tried them out yet. Maybe REI will stock those soon — they should. Looks like it’s got most of the same positives with more protection.

GREAT back-of-head protection for my baby boy!!!!

WONDERFUL helmet for my oversized 9 month old (who wears 18 month clothing)! He's big & athletic but his little mind is not always up to the challenge -- he can fall backwards and slam the back of his head hard, faster than I can react! So, I looked for a helmet with excellent back-of-head coverage, and I feel that this is the best, or one of the best, there is when it comes to protecting the back of the head! It has already proven its ability to provide great front, side and rear protection -- it's pricey, but it's worth it! The fit to his head is excellent, with awesome adjustment for a snug but comfortable and reliable fit! The chin strap is easy to adjust and connect/disconnect, and seems reliable! This helmet stays in position quite well regardless of activity, posture/angle, etc. As further proof of comfort and fit, my baby doesn't seem to mind the helmet at all, not even the chin strap!

broke almost immediately

This helmet was clearly not ever tested against actual children. They will rip the helmet off in the cage will shred itself outside of the foam

Pads fall out

It's a great helmet. Very safe and easy to fit. The only thing is that the pads fall out to easily.

most comfortable

This has been the best and most comfortable helmet for my toddler. She will keep it on for so long. I love the integrated back light for visibility too. 10/10 would recommend.

bad quality for the price

for the price, quality is lacking. The foam visor broke after a few months. Considering what good quality our woom bikes are this was disappointing
