I remember in my youth the wild designs that were emblazoned across countless motorcycle helmets. From fire and lightning patterns to insane graphics and characters to iconic liveries, everywhere you looked, someone had a rad helmet.
And then everyone sorta said, "What if we went minimalist?" And so the industry did, by and large.
But I feel like we lost something as a community when we left those designs. We lost a sense of personality and whimsy. We lost the ability to truly let our freak flags fly. I think we need to get back to those days. Not because of some odd sense of nostalgia, but because the world needs more fun injected into it in this deeply polarized time.
