Fold all tabs upwards by 90 degrees.

Placement

Position hard hat and attach back velcro to the inner struts of the hard hat.

There's no place to stick a tab on my cycling helmet?
Try folding the tabs downwards if there is no space. Experiment first by bending the tabs before placing the poppers down.
Is the Sombrim detachable?
Yes absolutely! If you feel the weather is getting a bit crazy, the Sombrim can easily be detached.
While you can leave your Sombrim on your helmet, it can easily be stored in a backpack, carry-on luggage, and some briefcases. As the Sombrim packs flat - you'll be able to stow it away with ease.
