Company Summary

Helmets save lives. We know that. We also know that many kids want to show off their style and attitude when they are biking or skiing--and helmets just may not be "cool". So our mission as moms was to create a product that was hip enough to wear, while the helmets were doing the important business of protecting our kids' heads. Fohawx accessories allow kids to be safe and look great at the same time. With Fohawx, safety never looked so cool.
