AGV helmets started with Amisano Gino, as he became a manufacturer of leather seats and bicycle saddles in Italy, in the year 1946. In 1948, AGV Helmets entered the market of motorcycle helmets, and then one year later introduced the first open-faced helmet with a leather shell. Fiberglass was introduced in 1953, and one year later AGV Helmets introduced the first 100% fiberglass open-face helmet. The company continued to progress as the years passed, and has continued to support the most important riders in history. Even World Champion Motorcycle Racer Valentino Rossi has made AGV his personal choice from the beginning of his career.
