Open-air freedom, DOT protection
Half helmets trade coverage for airflow, weight, and classic cruiser style. The good ones are genuinely DOT-certified, sit low without the mushroom look, and add smart touches like drop-down sun shades and built-in Bluetooth. These six are the most trusted lids in the category.
$$ Mid-range • DOT
The half-helmet gold standard — TriMatrix composite shell, drop-down sun shade, and a Speed Dial rear fit system that keeps it planted at highway speed.
$$ Mid-range • DOT
The distinctive one — a removable adjustable muzzle adds face and wind protection without giving up the open half-shell feel.
$ Budget • DOT
A clean, affordable half lid with an integrated retractable sun shield and removable washable liner — simple and comfortable.
$$ Mid-range • DOT
A 3-in-1 design: wear it as a half helmet, add the rear comfort sleeve, or clip on the front mask for that unmistakable Covert look.
$ Budget • DOT
Famous for being one of the lowest-profile DOT-approved half helmets made — the answer for riders who hate the mushroom-head look.
$$ Mid-range • DOT
A half helmet with Sena Bluetooth and speakers built directly into the shell — music, GPS, and intercom with nothing strapped on.
