Samshield
Shadowmatt 2.0 Rose Gold Riding Hat
How to measure for a riding hat
Use a soft tape to measure the widest part of your head over your hair about 3/4" above your eyebrows, just above the ear line and around the bump at the back of your head.
Take this measurement in centimetres and repeat a couple of times to get a more accurate sizing.
Please be aware that although Riding Hats and Jockey Skull Caps are sized the same way there is a difference in fit/shape of the hats between brands and styles by those brands.
We recommended that Skull Caps and Riding Hats are fitted by a professional.
Samshield uses 4 shells and a liner system to create their range of sizes for their hats.
If between shell sizes it is usually a case of trying both and seeing which is the most comfortable fit.

The Samshield Shadowmatt 2.0 Rose Gold Riding Hat is designed and made with rider safety as a top priority to provide optimum fit, and unprecedented comfort.
After four years of research and development, Samshield has made some upgrades to the original Shadowmatt first by making the shell deeper and slightly rounder to be more suitable for more shapes of heads. An integrated chin strap for all hairstyles, a semi-rigid chinstrap and a neater harness for a closer more comfortable fit and a new clip system to replace the touch close hook and loop system used to secure the comfort foam. Updated shaping to the back profile and design with added air vents.
Made in polycarbonate, the same material used for high-end motorcycle helmets with anti-scratch matt painting with an inner shell that is polystyrene with variable density to provide better dissipation of the energy produced on impact.
The internal lining system uses a comfort foam that holds its shape ensuring a constant thickness over years of use and a semi-rigid jugular to cancel the risks of the helmet tipping in a violent movement such as in a fall. The liner is removable and washable, with a strong fastening that also allows you to change the size of the hat within the shell size.
The Samshield Shadowmatt is available in four shell sizes Small, Medium, Large and X/Large. Each shell can accommodate 4 to 5 inner foams of different sizes to perfectly adjust the rider’s head, a useful feature, especially for young riders who are still growing.
Created to offer desirable technical features such as better dissipation of the energy produced upon impact with no risk of tipping the helmet in case of violent movement matched with exceptional ventilation, adjustment, comfort and hygiene.
The Shadowmatt meets CE EN1384 (Europe) and ASTM/SEI F1163-15 (North and South America) standards.
