French Helmet Label Roof Goes For Sustainability With New Bamboo Helmet

French helmet manufacturer Roof is known for its uniquely styled helmets with a very rounded appearance. The brand primarily focuses on touring and jet helmets, but this time, innovates with a unique shell made out of bamboo fibers. Indeed, the idea of a motorcycle helmet isn't exactly new, as Roof themselves presented a bamboo-shelled helmet several years ago. 

For 2023, the brand is bringing the bamboo helmet back to life. Simply dubbed the Roof Bamboo, it takes the form of a premium jet helmet, and boasts a handcrafted shell made out of natural bamboo fibers. The helmet is made even more unique thanks to the exposed bamboo weave, protected under a clear protective coating. Thanks to the handcrafted nature of the Roof Bamboo, each helmet is unique, and comes with its own peculiarities.
