Clever stuff - a inner shell that doesn’t get destroyed by impact!
A foldable helmet!
But, like, how bloody ugly are they?? Look like piss pots from the early 90s...
Plus, if their helmets last forever, when everyone’s got one (arf!) how many more will they sell?
Very odd.
How well do they work on rotational injuries?
No real info, there's a reason polystyrene has been used for decades, it's strength to weight ratio helps keep the weight down, would be interested to know the weight of that one, as well as other factors, as everything ages and their characteristics change, so the 'last forever' statement isn't exactly true.
This be them. Look even worse in photos!

Well, yeh, that was my claim, not theirs. Their’s was a helmet that “survives all the bump and knocks you get every day”... dunno about anyone else, but mine gets crashed on fairly infrequently.
But anyway, £150 for something that shit looking, doesn’t matter about the toughness of it.
I honestly buy helmets based on how they look and whether they are aimed at the gnarly riding I like to imagine I partake in.
I’m out.
On a positive note it's made in the UK
But it weighs a ton and looks like a builders bum ......... I'm out
AH, so it's near 500 grams, so around 50% heavier than the competitors in the market, and what looks like a very warm helmet to wear as well, i struggled a bit with my new helmet being about 50 grams more than the last due to it having the mips, not seeing a similar rotational protection on this one though.
Wow, premium leather one is £280.
I don’t think STW is the target market, somehow.
Might be good for hire bikes.

Pretty much all I care about (although they have to fit).
On the folding front, there already is Park and Diamonds version..

Folk here aren't interested in helmet tech, just looks!
