The helmet includes a dome-shaped outer shell, an impact absorbing layer, and an at least one ear-temple guard. The outer shell has a thickness ranging from about 1 mm to about 3 mm. The outer shell comprises a plurality of ventilation ports. The surface area of the plurality of ventilation ports comprises less than about 5% of the surface area of the outer shell. The impact absorbing layer is disposed substantially within and adjacent to the outer shell and has a thickness ranging from about 1 cm to about 3 cm. The ear-temple guard is sized to substantially cover a wearer's ear and temple area.
