Origins of style: Italian helmets get sleek new looks for 2024

Helmet manufacturer Origine has refreshed its lineup for 2024. For this season, models have been updated with the new ECE 22.06 homologation, but the most noticeable changes are the new paint jobs. The Italian brand's catalog includes both classic open-face helmets and full-face models.

The update for 2024 includes the most classic model from Origine, the Primo open-face helmet. This helmet is ideal for scooter riders and suitable for classic motorcycles such as scramblers, café racers, or cruisers. Its old-school look is enhanced by a removable visor, which can be replaced with a bubble shield. At the back of the helmet is a helpful strap for goggles, and the removable cheek pads and entire lining make cleaning and washing the interior easier. In addition to the new homologation for this season, Origine has introduced new paint jobs: Star Titanium Matt Black and Solid Matt Black. The price of this helmet starts at $110.

The second model updated for the 2024 season is the Origine Strada, the basic full-face helmet from the Italians. This helmet includes practically everything one would expect from such a model, including a stabilizing spoiler, a retractable sun visor, and efficient ventilation, as ensured by the manufacturer. It also comes with a breath deflector, and it is possible to install an accessory pin lock. The new paint jobs for 2024 are Fearless Black Matt, Solid Black Gloss, and Solid White Gloss. The starting price for the Strada helmet is $110.

Origine has created the Palio 2.0 model for those looking for an open urban helmet but prefer more modern-looking structures with a large retractable visor. This helmet also features a stabilizing spoiler and a built-in sun visor. The paint jobs available in 2024 are Solid Black Matt, Solid Titanium Matt, Solid White Gloss, Solid Techy Black Titanium, and Solid Techy Fluo Yellow-Black. Notably, the size range has been expanded to include XXL. The Palio 2.0 helmet is priced from $115.
