Description

Arai GP-J3 open face helmet

The Arai GP-J3 is an open face helmet (jet helmet) for drivers in closed cars, such as touring cars. The helmet is homologated to FIA 8859-2015 and Snell SA2020 and has a composite outer shell made using Arai’s CLC method (Complex Laminate Construction).

A Hyper Ridge reinforcement along the lower edge makes the shell stiffer exactly where it matters most. With three closable air intakes at the front and two at the rear, your head stays cool, even in a hot cockpit.

Choosing your size and delivery

Measure your head circumference at the widest point, just above your eyebrows and around the back of your head, and use it to choose your size in the selection menu. The GP-J3 is available from XS up to and including XXL. HANS clips are ordered separately. Delivery time is 4 to 7 days.

An open helmet built like a top model: the Arai GP-J3 combines a CLC shell, five air intakes and dual homologation.

Why choose this Arai GP-J3?

In a closed car, an open face helmet gives you more side vision and more fresh air than a full face helmet. The GP-J3 makes no compromises on approval for that: it carries FIA 8859-2015 and Snell SA2020. The removable interior is easy to clean.
