Who the West suits
City commuters, scooter riders and anyone who finds a heavier helmet tiring. The weight is low, the airflow is decent, and the retro styling goes well with classic and neo retro bikes alike.
Safety
ISI certified and tested to DOT FMVSS 218 for energy attenuation, penetration resistance and chin strap structural integrity. Every test is run in hot, cold, submerged and ambient conditions. An open face helmet does not cover the jaw, so it is meant for city and relaxed riding.

The West is sold in S to XL. Use the size chart above, measure one inch over the eyebrows, and take a look at our fitting guide for tips on judging the fit.
Care
Remove the liner, hand wash it in mild soap and air dry it before you refit it. Wipe the shell and the chrome frame with a soft cloth. The helmet maintenance guide covers the rest.
Warranty
