Helstons is one of the oldest and most respected manufacturers of France motorcycle apparel.

Back in the day, which were especially known for their leather.

In the United States there were Vanson and Schott, in the UK there was Lewis Leather and French equivalent was Helstons. The company was probably at its peak in the mid-sixties, the name is closely associated with café-racer movement. Refusing to go the way of off-shore, mass production, business vanished from sight when the owning family is diverted resources in your business successfully. But now, Helstons is back in a big way, and believe that your current collection is one of the most stylish and technically interesting in the market.

 

No one in the world of motorcycling who knows more about the construction of leather clothing of people in Helstons. Everything is in the detail; the way in which the panels are sewn together, oils and waxes used for treating leather, seams, linings. The guys Helstons are obsessive and nothing escapes his scrutiny. The end result is a range of clothing that is as beautiful to behold as it is exquisite to wear. Not that Helstons should be seen as a fashion business is limited to entering the world of motorcycle for credibility. It is a motorcycle company and although through and technical level, Helstons falls short. All leather jackets, boots and gloves have a waterproof membrane; jackets come with a back protector as standard anti-abrasion panels and sleeves. Put all these factors together and you would normally expect to pay a pretty penny, but prices Helstons' are extremely reasonable, in fact, are quite amazing.

The truth is that you simply can not buy this kind of heritage, quality components and construction, and technical performance, the prices offered by Helstons. If you are looking to stand out from the crowd, this is a brand that has everything you will ever want.
