Thousand Heritage 1.0 Adult Bike Helmet; The Original Low Profile Retro Commuter Cycling Helmet Safety Certified for Bicycle Skateboard Skating Roller Skates; for Men & Women

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.

As an avid rider of bicycles, motorbikes and snowboards, I spend a lot of time wearing a helmet, and own/have owned quite a few of them.I needed a new bicycle helmet for my commute (road cycle, 6 miles/10km each way). Since I cycle to work, and sometimes to client meetings, I'm often riding in semi-casual clothing. I needed a helmet that didn't make me look like I'd just competed in the Tour de France. The Thousand Heritage was just about my only choice.Pros:Very comfortable and light-weight, but so are a lot of bike helmets.Looks: fantastic. It's the first helmet that I've received compliments on. Also, the helmet fits close to my head, and doesn't make me look like I'm wearing a giant mushroom.Quality: the fit and finish is great, and the paint is glossy and smooth.Details: the strap clasp is magnetic, and quickly snaps together without the usual fumbling around. All helmets should use this system. Furthermore, the lock hole cover is also magnetic, making it very easy to use without any clips that could break in the long run.Cons:Not as many vents as some other designs, but that's obvious when you're ordering this helmet. Probably won't cool my head as well during the hottest days of summer.Conclusion:I bought the helmet for looks, but I'm delighted by the way it wears. It's one of those rare products that I'd buy again without hesitation.

I had ordered a different brand helmet and had to send it back as it was very uncomfortable, bulky and hurt the top of my head. This one feels good and I like that I can adjust it for a comfortable fit. I’m trying to get used to the chin snap which is actually really convenient once my brain can get the hang of it. It’s magnetic and slides in place. Anyhow, love the color, fit and protection it provides.

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.

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.

Fantastic service and the helmet is brilliant!

Good helmet but the service was a bit lacking. The helmet is advertised on YouTube and comes with a storage bag and extra padding but my one didn’t and was just as expensive so I sent an email to complain, I got an apology but they only sent the bag, no padding. This was not a cheap helmet so I was a bit annoyed. Another thing they say the strap is “vegan friendly leather” This another word for cheap imitation leather. What happened to just calling it faux leather. Anyway I would recommend it because it is more stylish then other cycling 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…

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.
