World Class High End Products
AGV Sport was established in 1947 as a manufacturer
of leather seats and bicycle saddles.
Two years later the company experimented with the
production of motorcycle helmets and saw that it
gained unprecedented commercial success including
the chance to be part of sport competitions.
Fully understanding all of the issues related to
such a passionate world, which requires incredibly
high productive, technological and safety standards,
AGV has committed itself, since the very beginning
and to be the brand leader and to stand out in the
field.
AGV Sport was born in the early days of AGV helmets
entry into the North American market.
Having its origin in the safety helmets gave AGV
Sport a unique outlook in the apparel industry.
Founded in 1985 AGV Sport sought to introduce more
technical features into motorcycle apparel instead
of relying on style alone as was the common
practice. AGV Sport products have consistently won
best in class awards from numerous motorcycle
publications around the world. A high tech “helmet”
mentality drives the development of most of the AGV
Sport’s products. AGV Sport provides motorcyclist
with a line of both affordable entry level products
as well as world class high end products hand
crafted in Italy.
