Comfort first for hard enduro
Long rides magnify small discomforts. Prioritize fit: if an item hurts or distracts after 2–3 hours, it’s the wrong size or setup. Return or exchange when possible. Remember, bodies and conditions differ.
Remember to do your own research and verify pricing and availability in your area. Theres rarely one definitive answerchoose what fits your terrain, climate, and goals.
Consider trade‑offs for your terrain and weather, prioritize fit, and pick reliable options with solid rider feedback.

Helmet
Critical protection for the head and brain. Verify ECE 22.06 and rotational tech; balance weight with ventilation for long technical days.
Explore Helmet →Goggles
Eye protection is crtical as eyes are very vulnerable to injury in hard enduro. Clear vision is control. Prioritize secure fit in your helmet, wide field of view, anti‑fog, and tear‑off/roll‑off compatibility for wet days.
Explore Goggles →Boots
Primary defense for feet/ankles/shins. Prioritize torsional protection and Enduro soles; allocate more budget here.
Explore Boots →Knee Protection
High risk joint. Braces mitigate ligament injury; pads protect against impact. Fit and retention are critical.
Explore Knee Protection →Chest Protector
Focus on CE levels, coverage, and ventilation. Brand matters less than build quality and compatibility with neck brace and hydration.
Explore Chest Protector →Hydration Pack
Stability over capacity. Zero-bounce harnesses reduce fatigue; choose durable packs that integrate cleanly with protection.
Explore Hydration Pack →Gloves
Grip and protection with frequent wear. Expect faster deterioration—prioritize comfort, bar feel, and reasonable durability over a single brand pick.
Explore Gloves →Elbow Guards
Useful for rocky terrain; sleeve-style flexible guards balance comfort and protection.

May reduce certain cervical injury risks; ensure fit and integration with helmet/chest.
