Fox Racing V Core MIPS Motocross Helmet — Matte White, DOT-Certified Lightweight Ventilated Fit

This helmet combines MIPS rotational-impact technology, a magnetic visor release, and a multi-shell polycarbonate/ABS construction to deliver a balance of protection, comfort, and race-ready features. Designed with four outer shell sizes and five EPS liners, the V Core aims to provide a closer-to-head fit for better control and less helmet movement. With nine intake vents and four exhaust outlets, airflow is prioritized to keep riders cool during intense sessions while moisture-wicking liners improve comfort on long rides.

How does the V Core MIPS helmet improve impact protection?

The V Core integrates MIPS (Multi-directional Impact Protection System) to help reduce rotational forces in oblique impacts. The helmet shell and EPS liners are optimized across multiple sizes to manage energy transfer and improve fit, which contributes to consistent protection across head shapes.

• MIPS slip-plane reduces rotational acceleration during angled impacts.
• Multiple EPS sizes match shell sizes for consistent energy absorption.
• Polycarbonate/ABS shell disperses impact forces effectively.

What safety-focused features does the helmet include for off-road use?

Beyond MIPS, the V Core incorporates a magnetic visor release system designed to detach under extreme loads, helping reduce neck strain in a crash scenario. The helmet meets FMVSS 218/DOT standards, confirming it conforms to U.S. federal safety requirements for motorcycle helmets.

• Magnetic visor release stays secure in normal riding but releases in high-impact events.
• DOT-certified to FMVSS 218 for on-road legal use where required.
• Four shell sizes provide tailored protection and coverage for varied head shapes.

How does ventilation and comfort perform during extended rides?

Ventilation is a primary design focus: nine intake vents pull cool air in while four exhaust ports push warm air out, maintaining a comfortable internal environment. Combined with lightweight shell materials and moisture-managing liners, the V Core is built to reduce fatigue and keep you focused on riding.

• Nine strategically placed intake vents for increased airflow to the forehead and temples.
• Four exhaust vents evacuate hot air to maintain a stable microclimate.
• Moisture-wicking interior liners help manage sweat and odor during long sessions.

How should I choose the right size and fit for the V Core helmet?

Fit is essential for safety and comfort. The V Core is offered in multiple shell and EPS sizes for a snug, secure fit; measure your head circumference and consult the brand’s size chart. If you’re between sizes or unsure, sizing up is recommended to avoid excessive pressure and ensure proper fit with goggles and neck braces.

• Measure head circumference at the widest point above the eyebrows.
• Reference the Fox Racing size chart included in product images for exact measurements.
• When between sizes, choose the larger size for comfort and compatibility with gear.

Who is this for: The Fox Racing V Core MIPS in Matte White is aimed at dirt bike and motocross riders who want a DOT-certified helmet with advanced rotational-impact mitigation, strong airflow, and race-oriented features like a magnetic visor release. It suits weekend trail riders, competitive motocross racers, and anyone upgrading from basic helmets who needs a modern combination of protection, fit precision, and ventilation.
