More safety in equestrian sports with reliable and high-quality equipment from Covalliero

Riding is a passion, freedom and adventure - but also a sport in which safety should be the top priority. With the right equipment, you can protect yourself reliably and enjoy every second in the saddle - whether during training, in the field or on the showground.
Wearing a safety waistcoat and a riding helmet when riding is recommended for several important reasons to ensure the rider's safety:
  1. Protection against head injuries (riding helmet): The riding helmet protects the rider's head in the event of a fall or collision with an obstacle or the horse. A fall from a horse can lead to serious head injuries, which are often life-threatening. The riding helmet absorbs the impact and thus reduces the risk of head injuries.
  2. Protection against back and rib injuries (safety waistcoat): A safety waistcoat provides protection for the upper body, especially the back, ribs and spine. In the event of a fall, the waistcoat can help to minimise the effects of the impact and prevent serious injuries such as fractures or paraplegia.
  3. Unpredictability of the horse: Horses are unpredictable animals. Even well-trained horses can become frightened or suddenly move in a different direction, which can lead to falls for the rider. Wearing safety equipment reduces the risk of serious injury in such unforeseen events.
  4. Legal regulations and role model function: In many countries and riding clubs, wearing a helmet and waistcoat is required by law or rules. The rider also serves as a good example for younger or less experienced riders.
  5. Increased safety for more intensive riding activities: Certain types of riding such as show jumping, eventing or racing significantly increase the risk of falls and accidents. Safety equipment is particularly important here to prevent serious injuries.
Overall, both the helmet and the waistcoat help to minimise the risk of injury and make riding safer.

Riding helmets WITH ERT: Riding helmet Eclipse and Eclipse Polo

This classic riding helmet is available in elegant matt black with a sparkling glitter appliqué or in a shiny look with a modern polo visor and combines stylish design with state-of-the-art safety technology. Thanks to the practical disc system, the headband can be infinitely adjusted to your head circumference with one hand - for a perfect fit for every training session and every ride.
The integrated ERT system (Energy Reduction Technology), which significantly reduces dangerous rotational forces in the event of a fall, ensures maximum safety. This means that the helmet not only provides reliable protection in the event of a direct impact, but also minimises the risk of serious head injuries.
 
The sophisticated ventilation system ensures a pleasant climate under the helmet - even on warm days. The removable inner lining enables easy and hygienic cleaning so that you can enjoy your helmet for a long time.

The particularly robust ABS helmet shell also offers increased stability and durability. The helmet is rounded off with a secure 4-point fastening that guarantees a firm hold. The helmet is particularly suitable for oval head shapes and therefore offers optimum comfort and an excellent fit.

Safe, comfortable and stylish - a riding helmet that leaves nothing to be desired.
