Features
Ventilation
Question 5. How well ventilated are the KASK Helmets?
Answer – The KASK Equestrian helmets are designed for superior ventilation. They have a ventilation system that enables airflow to the top and back of the head, keeping you cool and dry. From customer testimonials from riders at WEF (where temperatures easily touch 95 degrees), they claim KASK Helmets are simply very well ventilated.
Fit
Question 6. What is the KASK Fit System?
Answer – The KASK Fit System is a special design that enhances the fit of the helmet for all riders. It consists of a flexible brace that cradles the back of the neck/head area. Riders with long hair will find this especially useful. Since the cradle is flexible, it compresses the hair in, reducing any gaps.
As an additional benefit, it provides extra coverage to the back of the head area.
The cradle can be removed (optionally) if the rider does not wish to use it. Please follow the instructions in the User Manual.
Magnetic Buckle
Question 7. What about the ‘magnetic buckle’?
Answer – All KASK Equestrian Helmets feature a magnetic buckle system. As soon as you hold the buckle close, it self-locks. Be rest assured that the buckle is designed to prevent involuntary release.
Wide Visor “Star Lady” Helmets
Question 7. Does KASK offer a wide-brim helmet like the GPA First Lady?
Answer – The KASK Star Lady and KASK Star Lady Shadow are the flagship wide-brim helmets from KASK. These offer superior protection from the sun. Additionally, they are also very aesthetically pleasing.
Question 8. What is the difference between the Dogma Light and Dogma Chrome Light Helmets?
Answer – The two helmets are identical with one difference: Where the Dogma Chrome Light helmets sport a “Chrome” (shiny) trim, the Dogma Light Helmets feature a matt tone-on-tone trim. For example, the Black/Silver Dogma Chrome Light Helmet features a Silver trim on a Black Helmet. The Dogma Light Helmet is a top choice for hunter riders.

Hello do all kask helmet have collapsible peaks ? For eventing legalization
I have a kask, in size 60. When I tried it on at a store it fit fine. When I bought one it fits my head fine, but if I want my hair tied up I have to have it super super low and because my hair is on the shorter side of medium length it falls out, and it’s not practical. Could I fix this by buying a 61 liner? Allowing me to put my hair up slightly higher?
Hi Alicia
We are glad to hear you like your KASK helmet. Trying with the size 61 liner should possibly help. Also, please consider the use of a hairnet as it helps in keeping the helmet well balanced on your head.
Hope that helps!
Can I buy a KASK helmet with ID TAG?
Hi
By “ID TAG”, do you mean nameplate? Or maybe name printed on the Chinstrap?HI Tommy
KASK just started offering ID Tag for “CUSTOM” KASK helmets. Let us know if you would like to place an order for a custom KASK Helmet.
My head measures as 55.5cm so I bought a 55 helmet thinking it would compress down but it doesn’t seem to (I’ve worn it quite a few times and it is still tight). Is the only difference between the 55cm and the 56 cm the removable liner? If so, would the bigger liner make a difference?
Hi Wendy
If you have the latest 2nd generation KASK Helmet, then the difference is just the liner. Here is the link to the liner:
https://www.tacknrider.com/shop/kask-dogma-inner-padding-liner-snap-style/Please note that this only applies to KASK Helmets with the Snap Style liner (as opposed to the original Velcro style liner).Please check your helmet prior to ordering. The Size 56 liner will be a bit thinner than the 55.
Hope that helps!
i bought KASK helmet with size of 56cm. However, it seems small and i try 57cm and it is fit. Given 56cm and 57cm are using Small Shell. therefore, if i buy a 57cm inner liner, then that will be fit. correct?
Hi LM
Please check with visual inspection the generation of your KASK Equestrian helmet. If it is the very first generation, the small shell would fit in liners 51 through 57. However, anything after the first version, 56 and 57 liners do not fit in the same shell. The Extra Small shell will fit liners sizes 50 through 54, Small Shell will fit liners sizes 55 and 56, Medium 57, 58 and 59, Large 60, 61, 62 and 63.Hope this helps. Please feel free to reach out to us if you have further questions.
Can you give some advice as to differences between Kask and Kep helmets.? I ride dressage.
Hello Elena
KASK is a newer brand of equestrian helmets (been in the US 2 years ago). There are 2 main styles of helmets by KASK (Dogma Chrome Light/Dogma Light and the Dogma Star Lady/Dogma Star Lady Shadow). KEP is known for their ultra-light weight helmets. All their helmets feature the same style. KEP offers the most customization options than any other helmet with a 2-week order-to-delivery period. If you have other questions, please feel free to call us at 954-383-1599.
