WE WANT TO PREVENT HEAD INJURIES
A head injury is a major public health challenge and its magnitude is still under-recognised. It is estimated that about half of the world's population will experience a head injury at least once in their lifetime.
Ribcap protects − not like a helmet, but much more than an ordinary hat, thanks to the sewn-in protectors. The interior of the hat consists of soft viscoelastic protectors instead of a hard shell . Unlike hard material, which either holds its shape or breaks when impacted, the viscoelastic material takes on a different shape , allowing it to absorb the energy of the impact . That's soft protection .
WE OFFER YOU INDEPENDENCE AND ELEGANCE
