Emphasis MIPS Women's Helmet

Subtle branding and contouring align to create a dialed and sleek aesthetic. With a strategically placed Active Matrix ventilation, our K2Dialed fit system, and now available with an optional MIPS liner for added protection, the women's specific Emphasis helmet lets your shredding do the talking.

MIPS Protection
MIPS is a brain protection system integrated into select K2 helmet models that can offer increased protection in falls where the head experiences rotational forces from contacting the snow or other objects.
Hard Shell Construction
Hard-shell helmets are built to last and will look great no matter how many trips they make in and out of your gear bag. Hard-shell helmets protect users from impact thanks to lightweight EPS foam bonded to a durable, injection-molded ABS shell.
Active Matrix Venting
Climate control at the flip of a switch. Active Matrix venting allows the user to easily regulate the airflow of the helmet's venting system.
Full Wrap Liner
A comfortable, washable, full-coverage, and breathable liner design wicks moisture to prevent overheating and seamlessly integrates K2's fit and audio systems.
K2Dialed™ Fit System
The K2Dialed™ Fit System creates a custom-fitting helmet no matter what your head shape is. An ergonomically inspired three-point adjustable interface maximizes fit and customization with the twist of a dial. This allows for the ultimate convenience of being able to make fit adjustments on the fly.
Snow Certified (F2040 + EN1077)
Exceeds the US standard ASTM F2040 Standard Specification for Helmets Used for Recreational Snow Sports and the European standard EN 1077 Helmets for alpine skiers and snowboarders.

Liner Cleaning
Remove the full wrap liner and hand-wash with mild soap and warm water. The washable, breathable liner wicks moisture to keep things fresh — air dry completely before reinstalling to prevent odor and break down of the EPS foam.
Shell Cleaning
Wipe the outer shell with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid solvents, petroleum-based cleaners, and aerosol sprays — they degrade the polycarbonate or ABS shell and can attack any integrated tech layer.
Storage
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources. UV and trunk heat degrade the shell glue and EPS over a season or two. A helmet bag protects the finish.
Replacement
Replace the helmet after any significant impact — even impacts that don't show visible damage can compress the EPS. Most manufacturers, K2 included, recommend replacement after 3-5 years of regular use even without a crash.

Emphasis MIPS Women's Helmet — Fit + Tech Block

S – L Women's MIPS Optional + K2Dialed
📐 Find Your Fit
Size Head Circumference
S51 – 55 cm
M55 – 59 cm
L59 – 63 cm

Helmets are sized by head circumference (cm) — wrap it just above your eyebrows, around the widest point of the head. If your rider is between sizes, size up for room to grow. The Emphasis fits women's head shapes (smaller volume than men's equivalents). Compatible with most ski goggles — low-profile shape works with K2 goggles and most other brands.

🔩 Component Breakdown
Subtle Branding & Contouring
Subtle branding and contouring create a dialed and sleek aesthetic — no loud graphics or aggressive shaping. Clean lines that match any kit without competing for attention.
Active Matrix Ventilation
Strategically placed Active Matrix ventilation channels airflow through the helmet for temperature regulation. Active venting keeps you cool on warm spring days without sacrificing warmth on cold chairlift rides.
K2Dialed Fit System
K2Dialed fit system — micro-adjustable dial at the back of the helmet for precise, custom fit. Quick adjustments for layering changes (beanie, no beanie, etc.) without removing the helmet.
Optional MIPS Liner — Added Protection
Available with optional MIPS (Multi-Directional Impact Protection System) liner for added rotational impact protection. Adds a low-friction layer inside the helmet that reduces rotational forces on the brain during angled impacts.
Women's-Specific Design
Women's-specific design — tailored to the anatomical differences of women's head shapes. Narrower last, reduced volume around the temples and crown, properly proportioned for female head proportions.
In-Mold Construction
In-mold construction fuses the EPS foam liner directly to the polycarbonate shell — lighter weight and better impact dispersion than traditional hard-shell helmets. Premium look and feel with modern protection.
Goggle Compatibility
Compatible with most ski goggles — the Emphasis's low-profile shape works with K2 goggles and most other brands. No goggle gap issues when wearing a beanie or balaclava underneath.
