Helmets & Gear

Helmets and gear built for riders who take speed seriously — on the road, at trackdays, and in racing. This category brings together motorcycle helmets, one- and two-piece leather suits, gloves, boots and protectors from Dainese, Alpinestars, Spidi, RST, IXON, Sidi, XPD and Knox, selected for riders who expect race-level protection from every piece of equipment they wear.

For helmets, homologation comes first: ECE 22.06 approval is the baseline, and FIM homologation matters if you ride on closed circuits. Beyond certification, check whether a model uses multiple shell sizes — a shell matched to your head size keeps weight and volume down — and weigh ventilation, visor optics and aerodynamic stability at speed. With leather suits, the differences lie in the hide itself (kangaroo or cowhide), the certification class under EN 17092, and race features such as a speed hump, external sliders and perforation for track use.

Gloves and boots follow the same logic: gauntlet-length racing gloves with palm sliders and a secure wrist closure, and boots with torsion control and replaceable toe sliders for circuit riding. Protectors — including back and chest armour from Knox — should be checked for their CE rating, where Level 2 under EN 1621 offers the higher impact absorption. Whether you commute on a sportbike or chase lap times, choose gear certified for the way you actually ride.
