In the new Batman saga, two motorcycles have stolen the spotlight from the very Batmobile. You will not be able to drive the machines that Bruce Wayne wears, but you will be able to wear his helmet.
The Internet has worked its magic and the millions of eyes that have seen the new ”The Batman” already know exactly what helmet Bruce Wayne wears when he wants to go undercover.
It is the Ex Zero of the Japanese brand Shoei, a full-face helmet with a very eighties look. In matte black its look is even more aggressive.
You can find it at Motocard for 419 euros (VAT and shipping costs, included). Hurry before the sizes (from XS to XXL) are sold out, because it is sweeping orders.

Apart from movie lovers and, above all, the Batman saga, this helmet also has a fan club for its retro design together with cutting-edge technology.
The outer shell is made of what they call AIM (Advanced Ingegrated Matrix), a union of organic fiber and a multi-composite of multi-layer fibers.
It is an exclusive material of the Shoei firm. It absorbs shocks well with optimal rigidity and elasticity. In addition, there are three sizes of outer shell.
Its design shows the good aerodynamic work they have done: with a compact and rounded shell and a very sharp chin guard with less air resistance.
The interior is made of EPS with two densities, for great shock absorption. It has a central padding along with multi-layer polyurethane padding.
They have opted for even thicker padding in the ear area to better isolate external noise.
All padding is removable for easy cleaning.

Undoubtedly one of the most characteristic elements of this helmet (perhaps because of it they have discovered that it is the one used in The Batman) is the visor.
It is a CJ-3 viewfinder, which is manually operated and simulates classic glasses. The screen has a treatment on the inside to avoid possible reflections.
The ventilation system is made up of 6 air inlets on the chin guard. Thus, the air is channeled towards the screen, preventing it from fogging up.
Finally, we highlight two elements that only high-end Shoei helmets incorporate. On the one hand, the Emergency Quick Release System.
It is a system that facilitates the removal of the helmet in the event of an accident by removing the side padding.
On the other hand, it has a double ring closure that is easy to use and more secure than traditional systems.
