The birth of Suomy is definitely a typical story of the Italian family.
Having worked for a long time in Yamaha, Umberto Monti, founder of Suomy, decides to commit in a different way.
The helmet is his passion and becomes first distributor for Europe of Bell helmets and then of the Japanese DIC helmets. However, the true feeling that passionate him is the Made in Italy.
He involves the two brothers, Valter, the motocross rider, and Maurizio, nuclear engineer and the three together share their tasks and create Suomy, a completely Italian brand, but that sounds Japanese. From the very beginning, with its fluorescent red “dot”, becomes unmistakable and unique on the heads of the riders.
A winning choice, a nice brand, aggressive and racing, combined to a spasmodic search for the quality.
