Dainese is one of the biggest and most popular gear brands out there. If you’re just casually familiar with the name, you probably think they only make gloves, jackets, pants, and boots specific to us motorized two-wheel-loving folk.
But there’s more to the Dainese group than meets the eye. The company also owns some really big names like AGV and TCX. So yes, helmets (and some damn good ones, at that) are part of the lineup, too. Plus, they make gear for mountain biking, snowmobiling, and other action-packed sports.
Oh, and here’s a fun fact—Dainese even developed the SkinSuit. Nope, it’s not some high-tech motorcycle racing suit but rather, a suit for astronauts. The SkinSuit is said to give them better range of motion during space missions. How badass is that?
So yeah, Dainese obviously knows a thing or two about making gear that’s both functional and aesthetic—not just for motorcycles but for all kinds of extreme situations. And now, the Italian marque is taking its expertise to the snowy slopes, bringing airbag technology into the world of skiing.
