Cycle in Style With Yakkay Brainwear
Elsa Blaine — July 20, 2008 — Lifestyle
If you have to mess up your hair in a bike helmet, you should at least be as stylish as you can be while you do it. â€Brainwear for Smart Peopleâ€, is what the Danish company Yakkay says of their ultra chic bike helmets.
The designs are basically an interchangable fabric covering over a typical bike helmet 'shell'. The Yakkay helmets come in 4 styles; Izmir, Dublin, Tokyo and Paris, in a variety of fabric choices. The Izmir is a crocheted wool cover and my favourite.
Yakkay's site photography is so lovely it really makes you want one one of their helmets so you could look cool too.
