So far so good. It seems aero and has an excellent safety rating. Only word of caution is it fits a bit tighter than other Giro helmets I've had in the past. Also, the Giro helmet cage is a extremely fragile so never pack it in a suitcase without protection.
The Giro Aries Spherical MIPS is extremely light and comfortable and well ventilated. It is the best bicycle helmet I have ever owned. Yes, it is at the higher price range but I would gladly pay the price again when it is due for replacement.

Love this helmet. Upgraded from a Giro Synthe that I really liked. This helmet looks much better. It's quieter than the Synthe and is cooler. Only complaint, because it sits lower it sometimes 'clicks' off my sunglasses when hitting a bump if the helmet is looser on my head. Not a big deal, might just be my glasses. Would I buy again? 100% yes.

Updated my helmet from the previous spherical MIPS helmet by Giro, the Aether. Not only is this helmet more compact, but the padding and shape add to the comfort and looks. Really glad I pulled the trigger on this one when I did.
The Giro Aries is the best ventilated, most comfortable and lightest helmet I have ever owned/worn. Summer weather in Florida is oppressively hot and humid and I try to ride 12-1/2 miles 5 or 6 days a week. The Aries has a sweat dam which is 100% effective at keeping sweat out of my eyes even though my jerseys are typically saturated and dripping by the end of my ride. I love this helmet!

Over all I am very happy with the helmet, but I am disappointed a stainless bolt wasn't used for the back-strap adjuster; mine is rusting and has stained the area around it.
Giro helmets are my go to as they are perfect fit. I have tried others like Lazer but always end up coming back to Giro. The Aries is compact with the highest level of protection, perfect road cycling and racing.
Been wearing Giro helmets for over 25 years. Have bought a Bell and Specialized along the way for spares, but Giro's fit me the best. True to size the Aries Spherical is the most comfortable yet. Well worth the money for fit and safety and still lightweight.
This is the most comfortable helmet I have ever worn. It is light and fits very well. The venting doesn't seem any better than other helmets I have worn, but it just fits right and was very comfortable all day long on the bike. I didn't have to mess with the straps or the position of the helmet at all. I was surprised that at this price point it doesn't come with a travel sack, though. That's my only complaint.
I buy a new helmet every few years. Road focused, 8K miles a year. This one seems like the best I've owned: safety, aero, cooling, good looks.
GIRO ARIES SPHERICAL MIPS ROAD HELMET is an excellent choice for riders of any level of skills. It is comfortable, excellent ventilation and the retention strap are very easy to adjust and manage. It is a top choice for any cycling style and particularly efficient when hot weather conditions. This is a highly recommended cycling tool.
Been ridding with the helmet for two months so far. Really light weight and feels very secure. Also very comfortable. The sunglasses garage alarm holds glasses very well but it is difficult to do one handed while riding.
Good fit and excellent cooling
I use it for all my rides here in the North Carolina mountains. I don't have real hot temps, but it is warm and this has been perfect.
Comfortable fit, suspension strap easy to adjust, lightweight and ventilation is excellent. Well designed helmet!
Looking to replace my cracked Bell helmet, wanted a well ventilated helmet which this seemed to be but just not the right shape for my head.
This is by far the best and most comfortable helmet I have owned. I ordered the wrong size first and the exchange was quick and easy.
