The Best Ski Helmets of 2026
Oct 1, 2025
It’s hard to go wrong with a Pret helmet; the brand puts the same level of safety in each of its models, so it really comes down to style and specific features that you’re looking for. One of our go-to favorites from the brand is the Cynic for its protective features like MIPS, and an adjustable venting system to keep humid air moving away from your goggles when the sun is beating down and seal out snow when it’s storming. Just as comfortable in the backcountry as in the resort, the Cynic can be a helmet quiver of one and the helmet fits seamlessly with any of the brand’s goggle offerings.
