8. Shift 2016 AST Race Helmet, $169.95
In our opinion, Shift has always been one of the more daring motocross apparel manufacturers when it comes to style, but its new AST Race Helmet is all about playing it safe with your head. The DOT-approved and ECE 22.05-certifified AST features an injection-molded polycarbonate shell with nine intake and four exhaust ports for efficient ventilation and circulation though the helmet, and its Dri-Lex comfort liner helps to soak up sweat and moisture inside the helmet, increasing rider comfort and also helping to reduce fatigue. Of course, Shift still gave the AST bold, attention-grabbing graphic treatments in a variety of colors, so there’s probably one that will match your bike or riding gear. The Shift AST is available in sizes XS-XXL.
