Flexible Fit, Long-Term Comfort
The Phoenix is a great option for growing children and teenagers, or for riders who aren’t sure of their exact size. The dial-fit system allows for easy fine-tuning and ensures the hat stays comfortable and secure throughout the day. It is also a perfect option for people who change their hairstyle/thickness frequently.
The removable headband is breathable, moisture-wicking, and machine washable – ideal for keeping things fresh during busy weeks at the yard or in warmer weather.
Extra Protection When It Matters
The Phoenix Mips® jockey skull offers enhanced protection against rotational impact – a real step forward in riding hat safety. It’s a smart choice for eventers, jumpers, and riders who want additional peace of mind out on course. If you're looking to take your safety a step further, opting for Mips® technology is a smart choice. Designed to help reduce the risk of brain injury from angled impacts, Mips® adds a low-friction layer inside the hat that allows slight movement during a fall – mimicking the brain’s own protection system. It’s a popular upgrade for riders who want extra peace of mind without compromising on fit, comfort, or style.
