The world’s most evolved motocross helmet has evolved. Fully loaded with next-level performance, safety, style and progression, the all-new VFX-EVO proudly boasts the SHOEI-exclusive Motion Energy Distribution System [M.E.D.S.]—strategically engineered to reduce rotational acceleration energy to the head in the event of an accident. Completely reimagined and re-engineered without sacrificing an ounce of the quality and performance that have given SHOEI motocross and off-road riders championship-worthy confidence for nearly a decade, the all-new VFX-EVO defines the future of performance.
DESIGN CONCEPT
- Fully loaded with next-level performance, safety, style and progression
- Proudly boasts the SHOEI-exclusive Motion Energy Distribution System [M.E.D.S.]
- All-new V-470 visor provides a seamless connection with the shell, optimal roost protection, and secure positioning
- Optimally-designed vents, an aerodynamic shell, and cooling EPS channels yield superior airflow
MOTION ENERGY DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM [M.E.D.S.]
- Proprietary, SHOEI-exclusive rotational energy absorption technology (patent-pending)
- Reduces rotational acceleration to the rider’s head by 15% without compromising any safety and impact performance*
- Anchored by larger center column, inner EPS layer swings during impact
- Strategically-designed perimeter columns absorb rotational energy
- Significant reduction of rotational forces to the rider’s head
- Preserves the lightweight, impact-absorbing characteristics of SHOEI’s traditional EPS systems
- The M.E.D.S. mechanism becomes effective only when subject to an impact
VENTILATION PERFORMANCE
- Boasting sixteen (16) intake and exhaust vents in total
- Wind tunnel-tested for optimal vent port shapes, sizes and locations
- Improved negative air pressure suction for enhanced cool-air intake and hot-air expulsion
- Cooling air channels in the dual-layer EPS liner further enhance airflow
- Optimized to excel in the demanding confines of off-road and motocross environments
CHIN BAR EPS
- High-quality EPS liner material throughout entire chin bar for enhanced impact absorption
V-470 VISOR
- Fine-tuned by SHOEI’s professional motocross and off-road racing team
- Specially designed for a seamless connection with the shell
- Provides superior roost protection and channels cooling air into helmet
- Utilizes highest point of adjustability as its standard “home” position
- New flange mechanism to easily find home position and prevent unexpected movement
- High-grade polycarbonate screws are capable of shearing off during impact to reduce forces to the rider’s head
MULTI-PLY MATRIX AIM+ SHELL
- Proprietary technology integrates a multi-ply matrix specifically designed
- to meet both SNELL M2020 and DOT standards
- Hand-laid interwoven layers of fiberglass with lightweight organic and high-performance fibers
- SHOEI's strongest, lightest, most elastic shell provides optimal impact absorption
DUAL-LAYER / MULTI-DENSITY EPS LINER
- Provides enhanced impact absorption by utilizing varying densities of foam
- Allows cooling air to travel unrestricted through tunnels created in the EPS
- Precise placement of multi-density EPS material yields a more compact, lightweight design
- M.E.D.S. technology absorbs and reduces rotational forces
LARGE EYEPORT
- Provides a massive peripheral field of vision
- Large eyeport facilitates oversized goggles
ADVANCED MOUTHPIECE
- Wind tunnel-refined for optimal cooling
- Reinforced by a strategically-placed strip of AIM+ shell material
- Aluminum mesh screen and removable, washable foam filter prevents roost, rocks, mud, and dust from entering helmet
- Equal parts style, functionality and safety
EMERGENCY QUICK RELEASE SYSTEM
- Allows emergency medical personnel to safely remove the cheek pads from an injured rider’s helmet
- Helmet can be gently removed from an injured rider’s head with minimal load placed on his/her neck
3D MAX-DRY INTERIOR SYSTEM
- Fully removable, washable, replaceable, and adjustable
- Max-Dry material absorbs and dissipates sweat 2X faster than nylon interiors; soft, durable lower cheek pad fabric for a plush fit and feel
- Multi-layer cheek pads for comfort and helmet stabilization
- Three-dimensionally shaped to match the contours of a rider’s head
- Optional interior components available in different sizes for a customizable fit
