  • Urban riders often compromise between safety and style, leading to low helmet adoption. The challenge was to create a helmet that meets rigorous safety standards while appealing aesthetically to encourage consistent use. Additionally, accommodating diverse head shapes and ensuring comfort without sacrificing design integrity were key objectives.

  • The Heritage 2.0 addresses these challenges through a re-engineered fit system accommodating various head shapes, enhanced ventilation for comfort, and a lightweight design. Aesthetically, it retains a vintage-inspired look with modern touches like vegan leather straps and a magnetic buckle, ensuring both safety and style.

  • Commercially, the Heritage 2.0 has broadened Thousand's market reach by appealing to style-conscious riders. Environmentally, the use of vegan materials reflects a commitment to sustainability. Socially, by making helmets more appealing, it promotes safety and could lead to increased helmet usage among urban commuters.
