Jiano, an ancient god that had roots in a number of different cultures, was used to symbolize change and transitions such as the progression of future to past, of one condition to another, of one vision to another, and of one universe to another. The perfect symbol of the new Vemar Jiano flip up street helmet!
- Offered in XXS-XS-S-M-L-XL-XXL
- Engineered in Italy to the motorcyclist specific EC standard.
- Five (5) year warrantee from manufacturing date. Which equates to the full usable life of the helmet.
- DOT certified
- The Jiano features a mid oval shell shape which offers a more generous fit front to back and more snug fit ear to ear.
- The Jiano is a very comfortable fitting helmet for riders who like to ride for long distances. The internal liner fits the rider without any kind of pressure points.
- The exterior shell is constructed of ultra light thermoplastic material.
- Exterior shell is aerodynamically shaped for ease of cutting through the air with less buffeting and wind noise, thus lessening the stress on the rider’s neck muscles after a long ride.
- The Jiano’s face cover lock mechanism exceeds expectations for safety and convenience. The face cover lock utilizes metal pins and hooks, making it extremely resistant to opening in the event of an accident. At the same time, the recessed actuation button is easy to use even with one gloved hand.
- Two sizes of outer shells cover the 7 helmet sizes for the ultimate in a light weight yet proportional fit.
- An anti-fog, non-scratch 2.2mm thick outer quick release clear shield is standard.

- Padded wind deflector in the chin piece.
- Removable breath deflector in the chin piece.

    Good solution for Arai fan who wants flip front |
By Anonymous from Seattle
Pros: I really wanted the Caberg Trip, because of its terrific style. I wasn't willing to risk a ticket for wearing a non-DOT approved helmet, though. I wanted a flip-front; Shoei helmets don't fit my head; Arai (which does fit) doesn't do "modular" helmets; and I don't like Nolans. So the Vemar Jiano seemed like a good solution. Online reviews were very accurate. The helmet seems to be well made, and the shape is almost as good for me as the Arai. The chin-flip mechanism seems solid and is easy to operate. The built-in sun shade flips down easily and seems solid.
Cons: 1. As online reviews warn, it's a little heavy and a little top-heavy, at least compared to my old Arai.
2. The integrated, internal sun shade (a big selling point for me) works well, but it's insufficiently translucent ... it's oddly milky. The shade isn't just dark, like a basic sunglass lens, it has a little opacity to it. At first I thought there was a peel-off plastic liner on it that I missed, but there isn't.
3. The cheek pads are very thick and firm. I have a pretty thin head, and the pads push in my cheeks a bit too much.
Sizing Info: Fits true to size
Additional Sizing Notes: I have an oblong head with a sort of top-of-the-forehead point. Shoei helmets are painful on the top of my forehead after an hour. Arai helmets are perfect for me. The Vemar Jiano seems to be in between the two, but I haven't yet had it on for a full hour. I'm optimistic it will turn out fine.
I had my last helmet for more than 7 years, so ANY change is going to feel weird. I definitely don't regret the purchase. My problem with the sun shade opacity may eventually turn out to be operator error.
