April 12, 2023 - There is no doubt summer heat can be exhausting and Da Brim is the perfect accessory to protect against the dangerous effects of a hot summer sun. Da Brim offers a variety of sun protection products that work in conjunction with existing helmet systems, with lines for almost any activity that requires a helmet to be worn while outdoors.
Importantly, the benefits of Da Brim products go well beyond alleviating heat-related fatigue. The damaging effects from too much sun exposure have long been studied, and Da Brim products can offer an incredible amount of UV protection, without the need for harsh chemical concoctions that can often be unpleasant during long days outdoors.
The protection created by Da Brim products is rated UPF50+, the highest rating available for sun protection clothing, whereby less than 2.5 percent of UV transmission is possible.
SVI Distributing, the Canadian distributor, offers all of the Da Brim products, including their cycling and equestrian lines. In the existing product lines, cyclists have three options to choose from, including their 360 degree Classic and Sporty Cycling Helmet Visor Brims and the front-only Rezzo Helmet Visor.
The Classic model, available since 2012, has the broadest brim and offers the best sun protection, while the Sporty is a smaller version of the Classic and offers improved wind performance for faster riders.
The Rezzo’s unique 2-piece system offers maximal adjustability and added venting, so whether the sun is high in the sky or low on the horizon, the Rezzo can help reduce glare and keep the rider comfortable by increasing air flow.
The Rezzo’s two-piece system also comes in a wide variety of colors with different bill lengths—three inch, three and a half inch, and four inch, to suit different riding styles and needs.
Their equestrian line mimics their cycling line, with three options currently available, including the Equestrian Endurance, the Equestrian Petite, and the Rezzo Helmet Visor.
With their professional line, Da Brim also offers protection for workers required to wear a helmet while working. Featured in the professional series is their PRO Tech, PRO Tech Lite and their PRO Builder Construction Helmet Visor Brims.
Similarly to Da Brim’s other lines, all products in the professional series offer UPF 50+ protection. The PRO Tech Lite Construction Helmet Visor Brim offers even more protection with added visibility from ANSI 107-2010 compliant fluorescent yellow and reflective trim.
The fluorescent yellow is also available with the PRO Builder Helmet Visor Brim, which features the familiar shade profile and look of a hard hat. A water-resistant brim also helps keeps users dry in both rain and snow.
