Visor helmet meets magnetic interchangeable lens: the new uvex horizon family

Integrated, clean and carefully considered: the new ski helmets in the uvex horizon family combine helmet and goggles into a single system. All five visor helmet variants share a clean design language, a robust hybrid construction and carefully considered features. Three models introduce a new interchangeable lens technology: the visor lens is held in place magnetically and can be swapped in seconds. The flagship is the uvex ultimate horizon MIPS from the “ultimate line” marking 100 years of uvex.

Two worlds, one system and no compromises: modern visor helmets combine a premium ski helmet and ski goggles in one. The benefits are clear: the visor sits flush with the helmet, keeps out draughts, stays fog-free and accommodates prescription glasses when needed. With dynamic lines, streamlined fits and a modern look, these all-in-one solutions also appeal visually to many winter sports enthusiasts. The new uvex horizon family now addresses one of the last remaining arguments against a visor helmet: magnetic interchangeable lens technology makes swapping the visor lens convenient – simple, quick and possible even with gloves on. This gives the visor helmets the flexibility of high-end ski goggles when adapting to weather, light and visibility conditions. A total of five different model variants with different features will be available from specialist retailers from autumn 2026.

The uvex ultimate horizon MIPS is the uncompromising flagship of the new uvex horizon family. It is part of the “ultimate line”, a performance collection developed together with athletes that uvex is presenting for the brand’s 100th anniversary. At the heart of this premium visor helmet is the magnetic interchangeable lens: a photochromic, spherical single lens with uvex variomatic technology (filter category 1–3) automatically adapts to any lighting situation, while an additional contrast-enhancing lens (filter category 1), included in the package, ensures maximum clarity in flat light. Switching between the two lenses takes just a few seconds. The vision+ field of view provides an especially wide viewing angle, while the uvex supravision coating reliably prevents fogging.

Under the robust ABS hard shell, the polycarbonate shell and EPS core efficiently absorb impacts, while the integrated MIPS safety system reduces rotational forces in a fall. The helmet’s other features combine luxury with comfort: the high-quality merino lining keeps the head dry and at a comfortable temperature, while the adjustable ventilation system prevents heat build-up. Further features include the visor’s comfort face padding and Alcantara-covered hear+ pads, which feel pleasantly soft while still transmitting ambient sounds clearly. Also included are the precise uvex 360° IAS fit system and the magnetic Fidlock buckle for one-handed operation, even with thick gloves. A high-quality storage bag completes the premium package.

Skiers looking to combine the maximum flexibility of a photochromic visor with the additional protection of MIPS can choose the uvex horizon V MAG MIPS. The photochromic, spherical single lens with uvex variomatic technology (filter category 1–3) automatically adapts to changing light conditions. Magnetic interchangeable lens technology allows the lens to be swapped in seconds, the vision+ field of view provides the necessary overview, and the uvex supravision coating ensures fog-free vision. For wearing comfort, the uvex horizon V MAG MIPS draws on the same strengths as the flagship model: the uvex 360° IAS fit system, adjustable ventilation, functional lining, hear+ ear pads and a magnetic Fidlock buckle.

The uvex horizon CV MAG is the ideal choice for skiers who value maximum visual contrast and the full flexibility of magnetic interchangeable lens technology. The spherical single lens with uvex colorvision technology enhances contrasts and noticeably improves colour perception. Terrain edges, moguls and patches of ice can be identified earlier and more clearly in any light. The vision+ field of view further widens the viewing angle, while the uvex supravision coating keeps the lens fog-free. Changing piste conditions? No problem: magnetic interchangeable lens technology allows the lens to be swapped for a suitable alternative in seconds. Naturally, the high standard of comfort remains – with three sizes, the uvex 360° IAS fit system, adjustable ventilation, functional lining, hear+ ear pads and a magnetic Fidlock buckle.

The two entry-level models in the uvex horizon family demonstrate that uncompromising all-in-one performance need not be exclusive to the premium segment. Both helmets use the same reliable hybrid construction comprising an impact-resistant ABS hard shell and an impact-absorbing polycarbonate shell with an EPS core. Both feature a spherical single lens with uvex colorvision technology for enhanced contrasts and improved colour perception, the vision+ field of view, the uvex supravision anti-fog coating and hear+ ear pads for clear sound. The key difference lies in a safety detail: the uvex horizon CV MIPS adds the integrated MIPS safety system, which minimises rotational forces in a fall for even better protection. Those who prefer to go without it can choose the uvex horizon CV, the entry-level model in the uvex horizon range.
