When should you replace a helmet?
Helmets are designed to protect your head from an impact. From just one impact. If you fall, even if it doesn't seem like the helmet is damaged, you need to replace it: it could be weakened or cracked in invisible places... and thus no longer provide protection.
You should also consider replacing your helmet if it has gotten old. After 5 years, certain materials start to age, especially if the helmet is stored in a cold and/or damp place.
Decathlon store return policy for PPE.
A helmet is PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) that must meet the requirements of the EN 1078 standard. Since it is impossible to guarantee that a helmet has not been exposed to impacts after purchase, it is impossible for us to certify that it is still able to provide the protection required by the standard. A returned helmet can therefore not be resold. To prevent possible returns, please take care to check a helmet's suitability (model/size/colour) before purchasing.
Maintaining the comfort foam
You can change the foam in your helmet using the Oxelo replacement foam kit. (Code: 8607937)
