Open-Face & Urban Helmets

Urban jet helmets for daily commuting

Urban jet helmets cover the head while leaving the face open, making them practical for city riding, navigating traffic and taking short trips. Their design supports a broad lateral field of vision and combines helmet protection with a more open feel than a full-face helmet. Depending on the model, they may include a face shield, visor or different ventilation systems.

To choose the right helmet, first confirm your size using the manufacturer's guidance and check that the fit is firm, comfortable and stable, without pressure points. Also consider the type of closure, available space for eyeglasses, how easy the face shield is to use, and whether the interior can be removed or cleaned when this feature is specified.

What to check before buying a jet helmet

• Intended use: city riding, daily commuting or occasional trips.
• Fit and size: the helmet should stay secure without looseness while allowing you to move your head normally.
• Protection from airflow: check whether it includes a face shield, visor or another feature designed to improve comfort.
• Maintenance: check how to clean the interior and face shields, and follow the manufacturer's instructions.
• Regulations: before using the helmet, check the required markings and approval information for riding in Spain.
