I’ve always had a soft spot for vintage-style full face helmets, especially the ones that mix old-school looks with modern safety. After spending real time riding with this helmet—mostly city miles, some back roads, and a few longer days—I can honestly say it surprised me more than once.
At first glance, it looks like a retro lid built for style. After wearing it, it’s clear there’s more going on under the shell. The helmet feels solid in hand without being overly bulky. In my opinion, the balance between weight and protection is well judged.
-
Retractable inner visor with 7 adjustable snap positions
-
Dark inner visor included, with clear and silver options available
-
Wide field of vision, compatible with goggles
-
Fully removable, washable suede top and cheek liners
It doesn’t feel like a lightweight race helmet, but it never strained my neck either. Once on, the interior padding immediately stood out. The suede liners feel thick, soft, and well-finished, the kind of comfort you normally expect from helmets costing much more.
Our Verdict
It’s comfortable, stylish, and well built, with safety certifications that inspire confidence. In my opinion, it’s best suited for city riding, smaller bikes, e-scooters, and anyone who wants vintage style without giving up modern comfort.
-
Excellent comfort for the price: In my experience, the interior padding is one of this helmet’s strongest points. It feels plush without being spongy, and I had no pressure points even after long rides.
-
Eyeglasses-friendly design actually works: I ride with glasses, and putting them on after the helmet was surprisingly easy. The inner visor didn’t interfere at all, which isn’t something I can say for many helmets.
-
Great visibility and airflow: The field of view is wide, and I never felt boxed in. Airflow is steady and keeps things comfortable, especially during city riding.
-
Inner visor could be darker: The retractable sun visor is useful, but in bright sunlight it’s more smoke-grey than true dark. I found myself wishing for more shade.
-
Noise isolation may not suit everyone: It blocks outside noise better than expected. Personally, I didn’t mind, but riders who rely heavily on hearing traffic may notice the difference.
-
Sizing needs attention: From my testing and experience, this helmet runs true to size, but cheek pressure can be tight if you have a wider face. Sizing up may help some riders.
