Thousand Adult Bike Helmet The Original Low Profile Retro Commuter Cycling Helmet Safety Certified for Bicycle Skateboard Road Bike Skating Roller Skates; for Men & Women; Heritage Collection (Small)

Protect your brain! Its the only one you will ever have! Measure correctly first before buying any helmet!A professional biker friend/Physician Assistant taught me how to Measured the circumference of head, starting above the brow, above the ears to the back of the head. My head measured 22inches, I purchased the ‘small’ sized helmet, it fits snug, and very comfortable. It will definitely protect my brain (frontal lobe, temporal lobe and cranium from injury if I were to fall.) The occipital strap at the base of the head is adjustable for snug fit. For my entire life, no one ever measured my head when I purchased a helmet. You don’t just buy a helmet and strap it on!I Have worn helmets for 30 years, this is the first helmet that is snug, comfortable and makes me feel safe. Ask a professional person ‘at a reputable bike store’ to measure your head before purchasing your next helmet! Go to 2-3 stores, because you need a knowledgeable sales person to show you how to measure! You will be glad you did. Don’t just pick a helmet off the shelf without properly measuring your head. Ive owned 4-5 helmets over the years and not 1 sales person measured. Have a professional biker help you, Im glad I did!

I know, my review title is a bit hype, but hear me out..There are so many good things I have to say about this helmet, I don’t even know where to start. The first thing that I loved about the Heritage collection helmet is its looks. I couldn’t decide between the white or the triple black version, however I ultimately opted for the triple black to play it safe. However, I love all of the color options so much that I honestly feel like I will end up buying more than one for different occasions or outfits. I know, I’m that person.The construction of the helmet is solid and makes me feel safe. I love the matte finish to the black, and while it does pick up fingerprints a bit easily, they don’t show that much which is nice. It feels really good in hand and has a good weight to it. The buckles are well constructed to provide a tight fit and I was pleasantly surprised with the magnetic closure. I really do love the entire look of this helmet. It’s very vintage, minimalist, and just looks good on the head.The fit on this helmet is AMAZING. I highly suggest taking some measuring tape and measuring your head before purchasing this helmet online (or any, rather.) My head measured a little less than 68.5cm so I purchased the MEDIUM size. The helmet fit amazingly out of the box with minor adjustments to the straps, which I was thrilled about. I have also never had a helmet with a dial fit system and I really loved how this allowed me to get the helmet to fit even more snug than it already did. It really makes the helmet feel extra secure. I would also like to mention that if you read a lot of the older reviews it mentions that their Thousand helmets did not come with the dial in the back. This is because when the Thousand helmets were first put on Amazon, they were the older version and somewhere between 2019/2020 they switched them to the newer models. So some customers got the dials, and some didn’t. I believe they all should be updated to the newer version with dials at this point, but I could be wrong. The helmets apparently run large, so it’s recommended if you are on the in-between of sizes (For example if you’re exactly a 57cm size, get the Small instead of a medium.)Its breathability also really exceeded my expectations. When you look at the helmet in hand, you’ll immediately notice it doesn’t really have that many vents. 3 on top, and 4 in the back. However, you’d be surprised at how much air gets into this thing when you’re on the road. Because of the tilted brim of the helmet and also the shape the vents help air flow. A lot of people don’t actually know this about the Thousand helmets, but the padding inside the helmet is made from more breathable materials than other helmets, allowing air to pass through extremely easily as well. I have not found myself overheating or even sweating in this helmet at all quite yet. Although the colder season is approaching fast, I can tell I won’t have any issue wearing this helmet in the summer.The last thing that I wanted to touch on with this helmet is their customer service. I’ve never experienced such good customer service from a helmet manufacturer before and you can tell that Thousands really care about their customers. When I first placed my order on Monday night I emailed their team right away to see if they would help me facilitate an expedited shipping where I paid the shipping difference. They got back to me not even 2 hours later and set this up for me free of charge. I was really grateful for this as I was going out of town at the end of the week and needed it before then.Not only this, I think it’s important to note that they have a really amazing accident replacement policy where they will replace your damaged helmet should you get in a crash absolutely free. Thousand offers free replacement with a helmet from a collection of equal or lesser value of the original purchase. I think this is a super cool initiative and I have never really known a bike company to do this for their customers before. It shows that they really care about you.The one negative thing that I have to say about this helmet is that I was disappointed that the stealth black version does not include the vegan leather straps. I am sure Thousand could improve this design with black vegan leather straps instead of the ordinary nylon. Minor disappointment, but not enough for me to take a star off of the item for it. It shows in the item photos the nylon straps if you look closely and doesn’t include any word of the straps in the description photos like the other straps do. So that’s on me.After owning this helmet for a few weeks, my experience with their team, and their policies, it is clear that I will be a customer for Thousands for years to come.

I really like the look and feel of this helmet and how easy it is to adjust. I got it for e-scootering, and feel pretty safe but also stylish. I can get it to fit perfectly to my head with just a small adjustment to the knob in the back. Putting the straps on and taking them off with one hand due to their magnetic clasp is easy. The only thing that disappointed me was its “lockability” feature. The feature sounded cool but when you see the size of the hole in the helmet, basically no bike or scooter lock of any substantial security is likely to fit through that small hole. It’s not a huge problem since I just throw the helmet in my backpack anyway, but it’s an advertised feature that isn’t really useable. Otherwise great helmet and I see myself using it for a long time.

Without having experience with any other brand of helmet, we did purchase 3 of these for my family. I am currently the only cycler and I most certainly use it every time I go. It’s functional and stylish with its muted colors ( no screaming neons). I might look silly with mine on when I ride but I feel protected and it doesn’t shift over my eyes. The dial to tighten or loosen in the back of the helmet is useful and the strap underneath the chin doesn’t pinch. If you adjust the tightness there is no need to have a tight chin strap so I’m relying on the shape and fit of the helmet mostly.

The Thousand Bike Helmet from the Heritage Collection is an absolute winner in every aspect. This helmet effortlessly combines style, comfort, and safety, making it a must-have for any urban cyclist.First and foremost, the helmet's design is simply stunning. The retro-inspired aesthetics of the Heritage Collection are eye-catching and unique. I appreciate the attention to detail, from the elegant leather strap to the matte finish and subtle logo. It's a helmet that doesn't compromise on style.Comfort is paramount, and the Thousand Bike Helmet delivers in spades. The helmet features a soft, moisture-wicking interior padding that keeps me comfortable and cool during rides. The magnetic buckle closure is a game-changer, making it incredibly easy to put on and take off the helmet. The fit system ensures a secure and customizable fit, giving me peace of mind on the road.Safety is of utmost importance, and the Thousand Bike Helmet excels in this area. It is CPSC and CE certified, meeting the highest safety standards. The helmet's construction provides excellent impact protection, giving me confidence in its ability to keep me safe during my rides.

I love my helmet. The magnetized chinstrap is clever, the vents allow my head to stay cool and the rose gold is gaaawgeous. I have no idea how well it stands up under impact and hope to never know. Meanwhile, I'm plum-pleased with my purchase.

Great helmet that’s both lightweight and stylish. It’s only fault is it’s “vegan leather” strap which is both sweaty, hard and irritating on the skin when it’s hot. I understand they are trying to be on trend but if they want to avoid animal products the go for a soft webbing strap as used on most other helmets.

マットな塗装で、色もいい感じです。すごくおしゃれだし、街乗り自転車用にはかなりいいと思います。ただ、スケボーも行けると言うことでしたが、ベンチレーション部が弱いので、後頭部を打ったらすぐに割れてしまいました。買ったばかりなので、とても悲しいです。でも、ヘルメットしててよかったです。けどやっぱり悲しい…

Fantastic service and the helmet is brilliant!

I've heard good things and it looks great but it did not fit my head. Large was too tight, and XL was too loose. Had to return them I'm afraid.

Really love this hat, it looks great on, easy to store in its nice little bag, really easy to fit and very comfortable, would highly recommend.
