Boba Fett was persistent, sported a personal jetpack and was outfitted in distressed gear that told us he’d been through hell and back. Combined, his look (and skills) made him the most feared bounty hunter in the Star Wars—or any other—universe.
Now you can borrow some of that badassery by donning HJC’s Boba Fett bike helmet. It’s one of several special editions of their advanced RPHA 11 Pro model.
Though you probably won’t want to take a bullet or blaster shot, its woven blend of carbon fiber, aramid, fiberglass and organic fabric creates a remarkably strong and light shell. Plus, it’s comfortable to wear, with advanced air ventilation, enhanced moisture wicking and quick drying throughout its fully removable and washable interior.
The shield—which for safety reasons isn’t limited to Fett’s signature T shape—automatically locks in place with a spring lever and can be easily removed without the need for special tools. The specially molded EPS features dedicated channels built in for eyewear and a recessed area to comfortably accommodate your favorite speakers.
Until you can get your hands on an actual jetpack, you could always strap on aBoba-like backpack while you ride. But then again, maybe just the helmet is plenty.
