Topics from the brands featured on the 26th and 27th
The long-awaited "VIVID photochromic lenses" are finally here, available in 3 models. GIRO's first ever "VIVID photochromic lenses" have arrived
One of the biggest topics GIRO is introducing for the 2026-2027 season is the brand's first-ever goggles equipped with photochromic lenses. These newly developed photochromic lenses, long awaited by users worldwide, combine the highly-regarded high-contrast VIVID lens technology with a photochromic function that automatically adjusts to changing weather conditions. They will be featured in three models: Index II, Method, and Article II, providing a new level of vision
The new VIVID photochromic lenses automatically and smoothly adapt to the ever-changing light levels, from sunny to cloudy, and from tree runs through the forest to open slopes. Remarkably, even as the lens's light transmission changes, the high-contrast performance characteristic of VIVID lenses is never compromised
You won't have to stop riding to change lenses every time the weather changes, and you won't be at the mercy of changing conditions. The benefit of being freed from the greatest stress of "poor visibility" and being able to concentrate on riding is immeasurable. A consistently clear field of vision will expand the freedom of all your riding

Introducing the "Neo Mips II," a new model that inherits the legacy of the Neo!
The "Neo," a classic model synonymous with GIRO helmets, has been reborn as the "Neo Mips II," inheriting its legacy while completely redesigning its appearance and functionality
What's noteworthy is its sophisticated, sleek, and modern silhouette. You really notice it when you try it on; it makes your head look much smaller and more streamlined. Beyond its visual appeal, it also features "Mips" technology, guaranteeing safety
The Asian fit ensures stress-free comfort even during prolonged wear. Functionally, the rear ventilation lever allows for easy adjustment of cold and warm airflow, and the antibacterial and deodorizing "IONIC inner lining + antibacterial pads" keep the inside of the helmet clean and fresh at all times. The fact that it's easy to maintain without frequent washing is also a plus. Sophisticated style, uncompromising safety, and an exceptional fit—the "Neo Mips II" is the result of packaging all of these at a high level

Giro's roots lie in bicycle helmets. Founded in 1985 by cyclist and product designer Jim Gentes, the American brand is known for its unique streamlined design. Its helmets are favored by many road racers, even in the Tour de France, the pinnacle of road racing, and are beloved by cyclists worldwide. The high functionality and beautiful design of its ski helmets also made them extremely popular, quickly making it one of the world's top brands. The brand's high reputation is also due to its lightweight, highly durable hybrid construction and comfortable fit, which is perfect for Japanese heads
GIRO goggles, thanks to their proprietary EXV technology, successfully achieve a wide field of view indistinguishable from that of the naked eye. The "VIVID lens," jointly developed with ZEISS, a world authority in the field of optics, allows only blue light to enhance contrast while blocking harmful UV light, providing extremely accurate vision.
In addition to cutting-edge technology, ease of use is also a characteristic of GIRO goggles. Many models are equipped with a magnetic lens replacement system, allowing anyone to easily change lenses in an instant.
