Sandbox

Founded in 2007 in Whistler, Canada, by legendary pro snowboarder Kevin Sansalone, Sandbox is a pioneer brand dedicated entirely to action sports protection. Tired of heavy, bulky, and unappealing helmets, Sandbox shook up the industry by creating the legendary Classic model: the very first low-profile helmet with a cap-style brim. Now available for skateboarding, snowboarding, wakeboarding, and cycling, Sandbox combines cutting-edge shock absorption technologies (like ABS and EPS constructions) with minimalist streetwear style and ultimate comfort. Protect yourself in style with our selection of Sandbox helmets built to last.

Sandbox: Where Elite Protection Meets Streetwear Style

For a long time, wearing a helmet was perceived by many skaters and snowboarders as a style constraint. Sandbox was created in the heart of British Columbia's mountains to break that cliché. Kevin Sansalone's idea was simple yet revolutionary: design elite protection that looks like a classic streetwear accessory. Success was instant. By offering helmets with a clean, sleek design that fit ultra-close to the head, Sandbox made helmets a true style statement, endorsed by top park, street, and backcountry riders around the world.

Cutting-Edge Technology for Safe Riding

Beneath their signature minimalist design, Sandbox helmets pack advanced engineering built to absorb heavy impacts on concrete, rail metal, or ice.

Here is what you will find in the Sandbox range at our shop:

  • The Iconic Classic 2.0 (Street & Park): The brand's flagship model featuring its famous patented brim. Designed for skateboarding, rollerblading, or BMX, it incorporates a high-durability ABS outer shell and a ventilated EPS foam liner to dissipate energy during hard slams. Its ultra-low profile prevents the "mushroom head" look. Discover our skate helmets.
  • The Icon Model (Revisited Traditional Skate Shape): For those who prefer a classic round silhouette without a brim, the Icon delivers a timeless, ultra-clean design that offers optimal cranial protection and excellent ventilation.
  • Custom Fit Adjustment System: Every Sandbox helmet comes with multiple sets of comfort pads in varying thicknesses. This allows you to configure the helmet interior for a perfect fit tailored to your unique head shape, ensuring maximum hold with no pressure points.
  • All-Season Versatility: Thanks to breathable inner padding that doesn't trap moisture, Sandbox helmets from the Street range keep you company during scorching summer skatepark sessions as well as daily urban commutes.
