Leatt Corporation is in the business of designing, developing and manufacturing protection equipment for all forms of motor sports.

Leatt has warehouses and a distribution office in California for the North American Market, and a world-wide network of distributors.
The main area of focus is the prevention of neck injuries in persons wearing a crash helmet, for whatever purpose.
