The Airnest Airvest is built to be worn comfortably over any clothing — including over a back protector for added safety during Cross Country riding. Its durable, hard‑wearing design makes it ideal for everyday training, hacking, and XC. The extended back length also provides increased coverage for the lower spine.
This original Helite air jacket features the same airbag and multi‑directional trigger system as the Zip’In 2, delivering the fastest inflation time on the market at under 0.1 seconds.
In the event of an unexpected fall, the Airnest vest deploys instantly to protect your neck, spine, hips, ribs, and vital organs. As the airbag inflates, it rises to meet your helmet, preventing your head from snapping back and significantly reducing the risk of concussion. With an airvest, you’re essentially landing on a cushion of air.
From your head to the base of your spine, these are the areas that matter most — and when paired with a quality helmet, an airvest offers exceptional protection in unfortunate situations.
Each Airnest Airvest includes one CO₂ canister, a lanyard, and a saddle strap. We recommend keeping at least one spare CO₂ canister on hand.
The Airnest is designed with a slightly looser fit to accommodate a back protector if needed.
Helite airvests are simple to reset after deployment and require no regular servicing thanks to their straightforward, reliable mechanisms. Just keep the trigger area clean to ensure long‑lasting performance.
*** Please see the AIRJACKET SIZING GUIDE in the photos attached here. The Airnest Airvest is a much more generous fit than our ZipIn2 vest so please ensure you are using the correct sizing guide.
