The helmet Giro Aeon has the outer shell made of polycarbonate, with 24 ventilation holes. The inside is made of EPS. The lining is made of fabric X-Static, an anti-bacterial and anti-odor fabric. The outer shell is reinforced with a nylon frame and located between the external and internal, which is joined to the polycarbonate shell and EPS through the process In-Molding.

The sealing system Roc-Loc 5, evolution of the former Roc-Loc 4 system, lightened and perfected, allows adjustment of the helmet and a three-axis adjustment of the circumference of the helmet with the classic rear rotor. The ventilation of the helmet, in addition to opening 24 holes of the shell, uses a system called Wind Tunnel Ventilation, which uses wind and the extractive capacity of the rear holes of the helmet to allow air circulation and an efficient exit from its rapid the back of the helmet. The helmet Giro Aeon is present in nine colours combinations and three different sizes. Size M weighs 195 grams. Among the choice of colours is also the Yellow Highlight version, which improves the passive visibility.
