Icon Airflite Synthwave Helmet
Press Release | May 6, 2019
Icon describes the new graphics on its Airflite Synthwave helmet as a visual manifestation of retrofuturism.
Here’s what Icon says about the new graphics on the Airflite Synthwave helmet:
In a not-so-distant nostalgic place that you probably remember through stories of movies someone else watched, the Airflite Synthwave is a visual manifestation of retrofuturism all rolled up into a product with a purpose. Is it Skynet? Is it neon? Is it the lighting guy from Big Trouble in Little China? Yes, it’s all these things, plus it glows in the dark. Live the awesome life of what you think yesterday was today!

Exterior: The helmet’s ventilation system consists of strategically placed air vents, intakes, air channels and exhaust ports. The oversized chinbar intake enhances airflow, keeping you cool by routing air where you need it most. A decrease of both drag and weight was achieved by sculpting the traditional neckline of the Airflite to avoid jacket or suit interference.
Shield: The Airflite has not one, but two shields, with an internal drop-down shield for sunny days.
Interior: The removable sweat-wicking Hydradry™ liner provides a snug and contoured fit. Air from the vents is channeled between the comfort liner and the protective layer.
FIT: Intermediate Oval: The most common helmet fit type, the Intermediate Oval head is slightly shorter front-to-back and a little wider side to side.
Venting: Four intake vents, including a MX-inspired chinbar vent, and two exhaust ports are coupled with deep channeling in the interior energy absorbing EPS foam.
Shell: Injection molded polycarbonate shell for strength.
World Standard: Meets DOT FMVSS 218
