I bought this hard hat to wear at home! I do a lot of "assisting " on projects around our home, and tend to end up on the bottom of a ladder or either I am climbing on scaffolding to work on various things, so I inevitably end up having things fall on me! Nails, loose pieces of wood, ect so I decided I wanted to protect myself. This hard hat is awesome! I have a fairly large head, for a woman, add thick hair and finding any type of hat to fit correctly is a difficult task! However, the adjustable band in this hard hat, made adjusting and fitting my head very easy. Just turn the tension knob in the back and there ya go! The vents keep my head from perspiring so much, if I do perspire the absorption band in the front soaks it up.. I would definitely recommend this hard hat to anyone, and would buy again should I need too! Thanks for a great product! Read more
I was given a cheap-o yellow hard hat when I started my first construction job a few weeks ago. I knew I had to have a pink one and took a chance with this one though some reviews didn't like the color. I'm glad I did. It's a nice pink, a pretty pink. Not too in-your-face but definitely gets noticed on the job. Being short and the only girl also gets me noticed. Some of the guys tease me but in a fun way that "the pink hard hat" gets sh-- done. Today it got me the combination code to the foreman's locked, private port-a-john (the magical toilet that no one else gets to use). It has saved my head numerous times in the last two weeks, I'm forever bumping my head on rafters and skyjack railings. The vents are fantastic. I sweat from my head and have been working up in the ceilings and the vents do help compared to my non-vented co-workers. My only complaints are that it sits high on my head and I wish I could tighten it a little more. I wear a fabric headband to absorb sweat that helps it fit better (I have a small head). This hard hat also has a black terry cloth forehead liner. It's so nice a co-worker tried mine on and asked/paid me to order him one in grey. Read more
Of the 3 safety helmets I have owned, this is the most comfortable and easiest to use. I am a female, senior architect still involved in construction and have logged in almost 40 yesrs in construction. My previous safety helmets were heavy, hot, and unwieldy. For its price, this helmet feels better, and the air holes keep my head cool which is good as I have issues with my head. And since it is pink, it will be easy to identify me in a job site which is unfortunately still predominantly male here in the Philippines. Read more
I get compliments on it. Sturdy and well made. Read more
I bought the Safety hat because I have a riding lawn mower and the manufacturer recommends wearing a safety hat. I like it, and you can adjust it to fit your head. It's so light, you don't even feel it on. Read more
The ratchet area in the back is huge and rubs against my ears. Other than that I like how it feels and looks. It's light weight feeling, well balanced and stays put when bending over, without having to crank the tension down to brain squeezing like with many other styles. I glued some googly eyes on the back because the center back area looks like the nose in the old "Kilroy was here" drawings from years back. Looks pretty "Baby Bat Kite" looking from a distance since I got a black one. If you've got a big head this is for you but if you've got a normal to small head you might find the racket area in the back uncomfortable. I got used to it in a couple of hours as it just barely touches the back of my right ear. The venting works very nicely but it does whistle a little in 15+mph winds. Read more
Great hats! Built tough, within the OSHA and ASMI requirements, and this is by far the MOST comfortable hardhat I've ever worn - right out of the wrapping. Amazing. Didn't even put a sweat shammy on the headband yet, and it is so comfortable. Perfect for a quick gift too, for someone in the construction industry who's been around. They may have tried a fancy cowboy helmet, but they haven't tried one of these puppies. Read more
Nice quality but like in other reviews, its sits really high up on your head and doesnt cover the side of your head at all. I ended up just giving it away to some random worker I didnt know because its just not the protection I need. Luckily I bought 2 diffrent brands of hard hat and the other brand sat on head just right. Read more
