✨ Customer in the spotlight ✨

From facing daily challenges with seizures to climbing rocks and running free. Casper’s journey shows us what true courage looks like. Read his story below. 👇🏼

"We just received our Ribcap a few days ago and could not be happier!

Yesterday we went to the park and he was able to climb rocks and run ahead of me, and we both felt confident. He didn’t get overheated, and the cap stayed in place (his old one always sinks down over his eyes).

Casper has had seizures for almost 4 years, but he has good days and bad days, and it is hard to predict what kind of day we will have. I’ve always felt a little guilty when I put his large, bulky, non-breathable helmet on him, because it gets in his way and makes him uncomfortable, and sometimes it even causes overheating, which can cause seizures!! But I also feel guilty when I decide to risk not putting it on him, because that can (and has) lead to easily-preventable injuries.

This Ribcap helmet will be a total game changer for us this summer, allowing him to play and be a kid without a bulky, uncomfortable helmet blocking his vision. Thank you so much for working with me on being able to afford this for him!"

🧡 World MS Day 🧡

Today, we stand in solidarity with everyone living with multiple sclerosis. It's a day to raise awareness, share stories, and show support. We recently spoke with Susan, an amazing customer who lives with MS. We’re honored to share her story of strength, resilience, and how Ribcap has made a difference in her daily life. 👇🏼✨

"I was diagnosed with relapsing remitting MS in 2005, with no idea how it would affect my life. One of my first steps was joining the MS Society UK to learn more. With a background in public health, I’ve always valued science and research, so I looked for information from every MS organisation I could find. I also registered with the MS Register and the Tissue Bank as soon as I heard about them.

Back then, treatment options were limited and often came with side effects. Now, nearly 20 years later, there are over 20 medications available, and the guidance is to start treatment early to reduce relapses. I haven’t had many relapses, but poor balance has caused frequent falls. I managed for years because I usually fell forward until December 2019, when our dog was startled during a walk and pulled me off my feet. That time, I fell backward and suffered a traumatic brain injury (TBI).

After three weeks in hospital and follow-up care, I recovered well only to fall again in August 2020, hitting the back of my head a second time. I was lucky to recover again, but I knew I had to protect myself. My daughter found Ribcap online, and I ordered one straight away. I now own three Ribcap hats for summer, winter, and in between. I wear one every time I go outside. It gives me confidence and helps me feel safe."

🧠 Did you know?

That stress and tension can exacerbate tics in Tourette's, but focus and relaxation can actually reduce them? That's why some people with Tourette's have fewer tics when they concentrate on something they like, such as music, sports, or art.

That hypermobility is a common symptom of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome? People with EDS can often move their joints further than average. This may seem impressive, but it can also be painful and unstable.

📌 May = EDS Awareness Month
📌 15 May – 15 June = Tourette Awareness Month

Tourette syndrome and EDS are different, but they share something fundamental: the need for understanding, safety, and support. Both conditions are often invisible, but their impact on daily life is anything but invisible.

💬 This month, we are reflecting on the strength of people with Tourette's and EDS. Share this post to raise awareness, or tag someone you admire. ❤️

✨ Safety and style? Absolutely, inclusive fashion doesn't have to be boring!

Our Billie Cream helmet proves that you don't have to choose between protection and personal style. It's designed to protect you from falls in a discreet and fashionable way without compromising who you are or how you want to dress. The Ribcap Billie is easy to mix and match for any occasion:

🛒 Casual: for when you need to run out quickly to do some shopping but still want to look good. The Ribcap Billie is lightweight and breathable, so you won't even notice you're wearing a helmet.

🥾 Sporty: for a brisk walk in the sun, with comfort and safety in every step. Billie stays securely in place, regulates sweat, and keeps you comfortable as you move.

👛 Chic: for those more dressier moments when you're going out to dinner and you want to feel confident, elegant, and completely yourself.

In these looks, we combine the Ribcap Billie protective helmet with adaptive clothing by Tommy Hilfiger and adaptive shoes by BILLY Footwear, showing that practical choices can also be beautiful.
