Featuring a durable construction thanks to the composite EPP foam with EPS foam puck, and polycarbonate shell and MIPS (Multidirectional Impact Protection) technology for added protection, the Vision MIPS is our most durable foam helmet, featuring touchpoints purpose-built for climbing, such as integrated headlamp clips for alpine starts or evening sends, and improved side and back coverage for added protection.





The most durable foam helmet in the Black Diamond line-up, the Vision MIPS helmet features an EPP foam, EPS foam puck, and polycarbonate shell, which keeps the dings and dents at bay, as well as cutting-edge MIPS (Multidirectional Impact Protection) technology. The MIPS system is designed to add protection against the rotational motion (or kinematics) transmitted to the brain from angled impacts to the head.





This added protection system has been proven to reduce the rotational motion when implemented in a helmet by absorbing and redirecting energies and forces otherwise transmitted to the brain. Improved side and back coverage increase the level of protection and meets proposed UIAA requirements, while the strategically placed ventilation ports keep the air flowing when temps are high.





The suspension system and chin strap keep the Vision sleek, and the integrated headlamp clips are low profile so they don’t snag on over-the-shoulder slings and allow you to easily light the way on sends that push past the daylight hours.
