the samshield adventure
The Samshield adventure began in 2003, when Sam Maloigne, a former motocross rider and himself a horseman, felt a need for safety and comfort in the equestrian equipment of the time. His vision: to create innovative helmets that guarantee optimum protection without compromising elegance. In 2006, in collaboration with young show jumping talents (Nicolas Delmotte, Simon Delestre and Kevin Staut), Samshield launched its first helmet, marking the start of a revolution in the equestrian world. Over the years, the range has grown to include clothing, bags, products and iconic helmets such as the XJ and 2.0, each designed with meticulous attention to detail and a commitment to excellence.
