An improved helmet padding includes a multi-layered liner including an innermost layer consisting of a comfort liner designed to engage the head of the user, and having an outer surface covered by an inner surface of a relatively low density foam layer. The relatively low density foam layer consists of a first region of relatively uniform thickness with an outer area from which a multiplicity of protuberances extend radially outwardly. The radially outward layer of the inventive padding consists of a layer of relatively high density foam. The outer layer includes a plurality of recesses corresponding to the protuberances of the inner layer and sized to snugly receive the conical protuberances therewithin. The outer surface of the outer foam layer is shaped and configured to engage the outer shell of a helmet in which it is installed.
