Met Manta Mips Tadej Pogacar Limited Edition Helmet

A tribute to the golden age of cycling: Manta Tadej Pogačar

Tadej has shown that a champion is ready to make the impossible happen - to improve himself every day, to dream big and inspire others to do the same. The  Blačk Edition is  a tribute to the golden age of contemporary cycling and its leading figure, Tadej Pogačar, to talent and the spirit of sacrifice in cycling. In this edition, the aerodynamic design of the Manta is emphasised by an even bolder look. Black, a symbol of elegance and authority, is illuminated by intricate gold veining - recalling a season full of success.

How the logo was created

Tadej Pogačar's official logo was designed in-house at MET. The logo combines the name and monogram, the central element of the athlete's visual communication system. His initials, “T” and “P”, are simplified into an agile, dynamic shape that identifies him and symbolically embodies his style, achievements and distinctive tufts of hair.

Technologies

MIPS Brain Protection

MIPS Brain Protection is a low-friction layer inside the helmet that allows the skull to rotate relative to the helmet at the moment of impact. This process substantially reduces the force of the impact, preventing brain damage. MIPS has established that the head very often meets the ground at an angle during a fall, causing rotational shock to the brain. Thanks to the MIPS layer, the helmet absorbs most of the impact and protects you during your activities.
