What is known worldwide today as a luxury brand meeting highest demands of safety and design started in France with a handful of people and their passionate idea to improve and customise riding helmets. The brand was founded by Sam Maloigne, who started horseback riding in 2003 after being an international motocross rider. Passionate about helmets and their design he wanted to improve the safety and comfort of riding helmets by using high quality materials. As a bonus the helmets should be customisable. Whether it is show jumping, polo, dressage, or eventing, Samshield helmets have been specifically created for the respective disciplines.
The shells are available in 3 different sizes. Each of these can accommodate 4-5 linings that match your head size perfectly. Thereby, the helmet can ‘grow’ with your head, which is especially useful for children. The internal lining is made of memory foam that adapts perfectly to your head shape, which not only makes the helmet super comfortable to wear, but also increases the safety as the helmet does not shift during even violent movements. The lining can be removed for washing or replacing it with the Samshield Winter Liner.
The outer shell of the Samshield helmets is made of polycarbonate, which is also used for high-end motorcycle helmets. The inner shell made of polystyrene dissipates impacts. The front air inlet of the Shadowmatt helmets provides excellent ventilation and keeps your head cool. Additionally, the internal airflow system makes visible and often anaesthetic air inlets unnecessary. You can rest assured that every Samshield product has been thoroughly tested by professional riders before it is launched.
The Samshield Premium helmets feature the same structure as the Shadowmatt models. However, instead of the mat painting, they are coated with velvety Alcantara®. The Samshield Miss Shield cut features a long visor and an offset frontal band creating a look inspired by women’s classic hats. The Miss Shield Shadowmatt features the characteristic Shadowmatt anti-scratch mat painting. If you prefer the classic velvet look, have a look at the Miss Shield Premium models with their soft Alcantara® coating. Those looking for sparkling details on their helmets will also find what they are looking for.
In 2012 Samshield started adding gloves to their product range. The high performance material is comfortable to wear and ensures a good grip of the reins. A few years later the brand added a clothing line made of technical materials to meet comfort, functionality, and elegance at the highest level. In 2018 Samshield focused yet again on developing safety equipment and launched their safety stirrups. Like the helmets they combine safety requirements and design.
