Abstract

A helmet chin cover includes a shape retaining member having an attached portion which can be attached to a helmet, and a wind shield portion capable of preventing a driving wind from abutting against a portion near a chin of a helmet wearer when the attached portion is attached to the helmet. The said wind shield portion has at least one ventilation hole. This helmet chin cover is capable of performing ventilation near the chin of the helmet wearer well. Also, this helmet chin cover is capable of preventing a wind generated by driving, which abuts against the chest of the helmet wearer and is directed toward the chin, from being dragged between the lower end of chin cover portion of the helmet and the chin of the helmet wearer to produce a whistling sound.
