Motorcycle Half Helmet with Classic German Style
This vintage German style motorcycle half helmet gives you the clean, low profile look riders have loved since the classic era of motorcycling. The matte black shell with a leather finish sits close to the head, so you skip the mushroom look that bulky lids create. It is built for cruiser, bobber, chopper and cafe racer riders who want old school style with modern comfort on every ride.
Why Riders Choose This German Half Helmet
- True low profile fit: a slim shell that hugs the head instead of ballooning above it
- Vintage leather look: matte black finish that pairs perfectly with a leather jacket or vest
- Visor options: choose the classic open version or a version with a built in smoked visor to cut sun and wind
- Padded interior: soft comfort lining that stays comfortable on long summer rides
- Adjustable chin strap: quick release strap keeps the helmet secure at speed

Rider Questions, Answered
How do I pick the right size?
Wrap a soft tape measure around the widest part of your head, about one inch above your eyebrows, and match the number to the size chart. If you land between two sizes, most riders go one size up for a half helmet.
What is the difference between the visor versions?
The classic version is a clean open shell. The visor versions add a built in smoked drop down visor that cuts sun glare and wind so you can skip separate sunglasses.
Is this a true low profile helmet?
Yes. The slim shell hugs the head instead of ballooning above it, so you avoid the mushroom look that bulky half helmets create.
What is the shell finished with?
The shell has a matte black vintage leather style finish that pairs naturally with a leather jacket, vest or denim.
Will it stay comfortable on long rides?
The interior has a soft padded comfort lining and the helmet is light on the neck, so it stays easy to wear on all day summer rides.
How does the chin strap work?
It uses an adjustable quick release strap. Set the length once, then click it open and closed in seconds while keeping the helmet secure at speed.
What bikes and riders is it best for?
It suits cruiser, bobber, chopper and cafe racer riders who want maximum airflow and a minimal vintage silhouette.
Is this helmet legal to wear on the road?
Helmet laws differ by state and country, so always check and follow your local helmet safety laws before riding.
How fast is shipping?
Orders ship quickly with free shipping and a tracking number sent to your email as soon as the helmet is on the way.
What if the fit is wrong when it arrives?
You are covered by our 30 day guarantee. Contact us and we will sort out an exchange for another size or make it right.
