Vintage Open-Face Helmets with Visor: practicality and classic design
The vintage open-face helmet with visor is a popular choice for those looking for the aesthetics of an open helmet with the practicality of integrated or attachable eye protection, depending on the model.
In our selection you can find different configurations:
Vintage open-face helmets with external visor: models with a clear visor or other finishes, where provided by the manufacturer.
Open-face helmets with drop-down visor: models equipped with an integrated retractable sun visor, for those who prefer a discreet and practical solution.
Vintage open-face helmets without visor: essential design and classic lines, to be paired exclusively with compatible eye accessories.
Retro open-face helmets with graphics: finishes and colourways inspired by the motorcycling style of the 1960s and 1970s.
The availability of these features varies depending on the product. Before purchasing, always check the technical data sheet to see whether the visor is included, optional or not provided.
Approved Vintage Open-Face Helmet: what to check before buying
An approved vintage open-face helmet should be chosen not only for its looks, but also by considering fit, certification and construction features.
Approval: check the regulation stated on the product page and on the helmet label, such as ECE 22.06 where applicable.
Size: measure your head circumference and consult the manufacturer’s size guide.
Fit: choose a model that fits correctly, without excessive movement or unusual pressure points.
Visor: check for integrated sun visors, external visors or compatible accessories.
Comfort: assess weight, padding, ventilation and the possibility of removing the interior lining, where предусмотрено.
Please note that an open-face helmet leaves the chin area exposed and offers different coverage compared to a full-face helmet.
If you want a fixed chin guard and greater facial coverage, also explore our vintage full-face helmets.
Cafe Racer Open-Face Helmets: Bell, Biltwell, Roeg and other brands

Vintage Jet or Demi Jet Helmets: what are the differences?
If you are comparing a jet helmet with a demi jet helmet, consider above all the shell shape, side and rear coverage, fit and the features of the individual model.
Vintage demi jet helmets are generally characterised by a more compact configuration, but actual coverage may vary from product to product.
