Sam Terry designed this foldable helmet with urban cyclists and commuters in mind. Currently the subject of a crowdfunding campaign on Indiegogo, 'LID' was created to fit your head and into your bag.

LID's multipiece design, four notch adjustment system and velcro band offer a more tailored and comfortable fit. The compactly foldable helmet easily collapses in on itself to better fit into your backpack, satchel or tote bag. The comfortable folding helmet is equipped with head-cooling, sweat bucket-preventing air vents and comes in five different colors to best suit your style. It also has a padded chin strap to reduce irritation. The officially safety certified headgear is made out of environmentally friendly materials and comes with a clip-on light as well.
