Shoei has introduced a new colorway called “Sheen” for their popular Z-8 full-face helmet. The Sheen graphic features a glossy finish and a two-tone colorway that gives the helmet a sporty yet elegant look. The edges of the colors have a gradient effect, blending into black. Shoei has released two color options for the Sheen graphic: blue and red, both with black and white accents. These new colorways will be available in Japan by November 2023, with prices starting at 68,200 yen (approximately $427 USD).

In terms of specifications, the Sheen graphic Z-8 helmet remains unchanged from other variations. It is constructed with Shoei’s Advanced Integrated Matrix (AIM) plus multi-fiber shell, which ensures lightweight and effective impact dispersion. The helmet also features ample ventilation for airflow on warmer days. The interior is equipped with removable and washable liners for longevity, and the visor offers a wide field of view and is compatible with an anti-fog lens. The Z-8 helmet is available in sizes ranging from S (55 centimeters) to XXL (63 centimeters).

It is important to note that Shoei’s helmet models may vary in availability across international markets. For more information on Shoei’s products, including availability in specific regions, please visit their official website or contact your nearest gear retailer.
