When climbing and mountaineering are practiced by women, the Petzl Meteora is the choice designed for you: a lightweight and compact helmet that combines protection, comfort, and practicality for those with long hair tied up. The OMEGA headband is designed with a marked opening to accommodate a ponytail, allowing for a comfortable and secure fit without sacrificing freedom of movement during crag outings or alpine hikes.
The In-Mold construction combines an inner shell made of injected EPS foam under a thin polycarbonate coating, ensuring a robust yet surprisingly lightweight structure: the weight is just 225 g. This solution ensures compactness on the head, impact resistance, and a feeling of protection that remains discreet and unobtrusive, ideal for climbers seeking performance and lightness.
The enveloping design, with a lowered profile at the back of the head, is designed according to Petzl's standards for superior and lateral protection, offering effective defense against frontal, lateral, and rear impacts. The refined finishes and understated style make the Meteora a helmet with a sophisticated yet functional appearance, suitable for those who desire a practical and quality product.
The wide ventilation holes ensure excellent air circulation, keeping the head cool even during prolonged efforts or hot days at altitude. The semi-rigid OMEGA headband allows for simple and stable adjustment, easy even with gloves, while the two front hooks and the rear elastic allow for easy attachment of a headlamp, increasing the helmet's versatility in low-light conditions.
The specific size for women (52/58 cm) and the headband designed to accommodate tied-up hair make the Meteora a model tailored to female needs without compromising safety and technical performance.
