Petzl BOREO

Petzl BOREO is a durable, compact and versatile helmet designed for climbing, mountaineering, via ferrata, canyoning and caving. Built for regular use on rock, in the mountains and underground, it combines reliable protection, excellent durability and comfortable adjustment.

The BOREO helmet uses a hybrid construction: a thick outer ABS shell for impact and scratch resistance, combined with a dual EPP and EPS foam liner to help absorb impact energy. Its lower rear design provides greater head coverage and improved protection against impacts to the side, front and rear of the head.

This helmet carries Petzl’s TOP AND SIDE PROTECTION label, meaning it is designed to provide enhanced protection not only from above, but also from the sides, front and rear. Ventilation holes improve airflow, while the flexible headband and fully adjustable chinstrap make it stable and comfortable to wear.
