City Series #050: Davos, Switzerland — Where Alpine Precision Meets Future Vision

In the snow-capped peaks and international atmosphere of Davos, The Way Sport transforms high-altitude inspiration into road cycling protection built on 20 years of industrial design expertise.

In Davos, Switzerland, cycling is more than a sport. It is a dialogue between human ambition, alpine terrain, and the relentless pursuit of precision.

Surrounded by dramatic mountain peaks and known worldwide for its international forums and forward-looking vision, Davos inspired us to create a helmet that reflects both high-performance engineering and future-oriented design thinking.

For City Series #050, we introduced the ORHIM010 (Road Bike Edition) — a road cycling helmet developed to combine aerodynamic efficiency, structural resilience, and contemporary alpine aesthetics.

Designing Protection for the World’s Summit

The challenge of Davos is unique. Riders face changing weather, high-altitude conditions, and demanding climbs while expecting the comfort and performance required for long-distance cycling.

Our goal was to create a helmet that could deliver:

  • Stable airflow in alpine environments
  • Reliable impact protection
  • Lightweight comfort for extended rides
  • A visual language that reflects both mountain landscapes and modern innovation

Backed by 20 years of industrial design experience, the ORHIM010 was developed as a balance of technical precision and emotional storytelling.

The Rhythm of Davos

Davos represents a rare combination of natural power and international vision.

The helmet graphics draw inspiration from alpine geometry, glacier contours, and contemporary technological patterns. Every line was designed to reinforce the connection between performance, precision, and exploration.

This is not simply a helmet designed for speed. It is a product intended to accompany riders as they challenge elevation, distance, and their own limits.

Four Design Narratives

Gravel Shield

PC/ABS Hybrid

Inspired by changing road conditions and rugged alpine terrain. The PC/ABS hybrid concept emphasizes durability and confidence on mixed surfaces.

Glacier Summit

Ice & Gold

Combines glacier blue with gold accents to symbolize the purity and achievement associated with high-altitude summit riding.

Alpine Trail

Slate & Hope

Slate-inspired textures and subtle highlights express resilience, stability, and the quiet optimism of mountain exploration.

Tech-WEF

Digital Geometry

A tribute to Davos’ role as a global innovation hub, featuring blue digital geometric patterns that merge technology with cycling culture.

High-Altitude Performance Protection

The ORHIM010 focuses on the coexistence of aerodynamics and safety.

Ventilation channels were optimized to maintain airflow during long climbs, while the overall structure was engineered to provide stable protection without compromising comfort.

Every detail reflects our commitment to:

  • Manufacturing precision
  • International safety standards
  • Long-distance riding comfort
  • Reliable performance in challenging environments

The Rider’s Spirit

Davos is a place where people gather to discuss the future, challenge conventions, and pursue new possibilities.

We believe cycling carries the same spirit.

“When riders wear the ORHIM010, the mountain-inspired textures and future-oriented details become more than decoration. They represent a professional promise — to help riders move toward the summit with precision, confidence, and resilience.”

This philosophy is part of our ongoing City Series Helmet Design Project, where sports culture, environmental inspiration, and rider emotion are translated into helmet graphics and product storytelling.
