Design and symbolism of the helmet
The Garrett Gerloff Replica Helmet features the Longhorn skull design on the top, symbolizing his Texan roots. The helmet is in the colors of the Lone Star State – red, white and blue – with the Texas star on both sides. This design is eye-catching and draws attention. The design was inspired by Texan racing driver Ben Spies, whose HJC replica also features the Texas star. Garrett’s admiration for Ben adds an extra layer of meaning to this story.
