Look at these helmets!







Lately, I've been riding my bicycle with my riding helmet, and I thought that was cool. Well, these guys are 200000% times cooler! Oh, I love these helmets. And hats in general!


These are from Borsalino, who usually makes these kinds of lovely hats:

Cool photos. I've always been amazed about how much scooter helmets (and scooters) are a part of fashion in Taiwan. The difference between different cities is really interesting too.

I always get a kick out of the "hard hat" helmet. A hard hat with no chin strap perched on top of the head......... Not much good in case of an accident, but I suppose it satisfies the requirement of wearing a helmet. :)

Yes, I noticed the difference between Taipei helmets and Kaohsiung helmets one time - Taipei people like sportier ones it seems, and Kaohsiung people like crazier ones, like with afros and stuffed animals attached to the outside.

To Bryan:
Are hardhats really legal to wear as motorcycle helmets? Yikes...

To Sebastian:
No, these helmets are not mine. I would love to own some of them, though!
