The X-Fifteen racing helmet is the next generation in Shoei’s X-series of premium helmets featuring the Shoei-exclusive multi-ply Matrix AIM+ shell and multipiece, multidensity EPS liner. The helmet’s revised shape reduces air resistance by limiting lift and drag.

Wind tunnel testing throughout development revealed optimal airflow in multiple riding positions, but none more important than the aerodynamic, tucked racing position. Ventilation on the X-Fifteen has been optimized through deeper channels for airflow and ideal vent placement.

The X-Fifteen has a new faceshield with a two-stage locking system, a new baseplate, and a revised eyeport that expands the field of vision over previous X-series helmets.
