riding helmet
Mounted sport protection
A riding helmet is protective headgear worn while horseback riding, designed to absorb impact and protect the skull in falls.
Unlike bicycle or motorcycle helmets, riding helmets typically have a distinctive low profile with a small brim and ventilation slots: All riders under eighteen must wear an approved riding helmet.
Also called an equestrian helmet.
