SHOEI · X-Fifteen · Full Face
The SHOEI X-Fifteen Marquez Thai is a full-face motorcycle helmet featuring design cues from Marc Marquez’s helmet used during the Thai round of the 2023 MotoGP. Built on the X-Fifteen platform, it’s aimed at riders who prioritize race-focused performance while still fitting street and touring use as shown in SHOEI’s riding-style ratings.
This helmet uses SHOEI’s AIM+ shell, an Impact Absorbing Liner, and a Defogger Ventilation System to support consistent airflow and visibility management. The CWR-F2R shield system is paired with an included Anti-fog Sheet, and the package also includes a Breath Guard and Chin Curtain for a more controlled ride environment.

Shield
The X-Fifteen uses the CWR-F2R shield, created using SHOEI’s 3D injection-molding process for a distortion-free view across the full eyeport. For fog management, this helmet includes an Anti-fog Sheet, and the platform is designed around a dedicated Racing Shield System to match the helmet’s track-focused intent.
Comfort
Air management is a core part of the X-Fifteen, with seven (7) closable air intakes and six (6) exhaust outlets shaped and positioned to move air through the helmet. The model also includes improvements to cheek pad cooling to help bring in refreshing air and clear humidity from the rider’s face, and it uses a fully removable, washable, adjustable, and replaceable 3D Max-Dry Custom Interior System II.
The X-Fifteen’s aerodynamic development was designed and refined in SHOEI’s wind tunnel facility with a racing focus. SHOEI notes that aerodynamics are among the most studied properties in racing, and the X-Fifteen was developed with the goal of improving aerodynamic performance measurables. For riders, that emphasis targets stable behavior at speed and a shape intended for track conditions.
The Marquez Thai graphic showcases multiple design elements featured on Marc Marquez’s helmet during the Thai round of the 2023 MotoGP. It’s offered in Marquez Thai TC-1 across the listed size range, giving riders access to the X-Fifteen platform with a race-inspired look tied directly to that 2023 event.
Inside, the X-Fifteen uses a 3D Max-Dry Custom Interior System II that is fully removable, washable, adjustable, and replaceable.
