Ergodyne Safety Bump Cap, Baseball Hat Style, Comfortable Head Protection, Long Brim, Skullerz 8950, Navy Blue, Long

I bought this cap to keep me from whacking my head in the confined engine room of my boat and within a few minutes of putting it on, I had saved myself from two bumps that in the past might have drawn blood. Every time I wear this hat in a confined space, I find there are one or two times it bumps up against something and I say to myself that it has paid for itself yet again. I have recommended them to my friends and know a few have bought them too. While it is not as light or comfortable as a regular baseball cap, it is far better than a hard hat or helmet. I have gone out and about several times while wearing the hat and have not realized I still had it on instead of a regular ball cap. That said, it does not offer the same level of ventilation. If my head is getting warm and a bit sweaty while wearing it in our Houston winter, I can imagine it will be unpleasant in the summer heat. That said, having to deal with blood running down your forehead is worse than having to deal with a bit of sweat, so I will gladly endure the lack of ventilation to get the protection. You can tell there is something different about the hat if you look at it closely, but I think it looks fine. It appears to be well constructed with quality materials.

A head saver, works good and comfortable.

No, it doesn’t comply to anything that I’m aware of, however, I will tell you, that it’s great for general protection when you don’t need a hard hat. When I’m on the job site, I don’t often need a hard hat as it’s rare for someone to be working over head. I haven’t used it yet, but I am always wearing a ball cap, so if I feel like my head is gonna hit something that I’m crouching or crawling near this is great. I’ve also dropped my own hammer on my head a few times. Today I actually was wearing it around for house work and my metal tool box lid fell while I was putting some tools away, didn’t feel a thing. Long story short, if you are required to wear a hard hat, but still feel like you should protect your head with good ventilation, this hat is great, and comfy. Cons: it’s shape is a little off, but I suppose that the gap between my head and the top helps protect from shock. The back Velcro strap is pretty lame. I wish it was a clip so that I could make is tight and more solid. Again, I’ve used this to my advantage by putting my ponytail through it which helps hold it down. With a better back strap, it’ll likely not fall off.

This hat is strong, lightweight and comfortable. And fits well. I have to be careful of falls and head bumps. I’ve recommended this hat to many people. Even my doctor has recommended it to patients after seeing it first hand. Well worth the inexpensive cost.

My poor father is notorious for hitting his head. It turned into a family joke at some point! I even bought him his own hardhat for Christmas one year! Lol! Now that he is older, nothing has changed! He and my mom just moved into their new house. He was so proud of himself one day because he indeed hit his head on something in the garage and came in the house just to brag that he hit his head but he was wearing his hardhat! Lol! Then he said he became too hot wearing it so he took it off for a little while and, unfortunately, while it was off he hit his head again on the corner of the garage door rails which are very sharp metal. God love him, he walked into the house and my mom and I were working on other things and he yelled out that he hit his head again! We shook our heads and smiled at each other. Then we heard him say, “ I think it’s serious this time”. When we walked over to see him we were shocked at the amount of blood that was coming down his head. We rushed him to the emergency room and he did in fact have to have staples. My poor daddy! He’s in his 70s. when I heard that he took off the hardhat because it was getting too hot for him I am mediately tried to find a replacement solution. That is when I found this hat! He loves it! He wears it every day all the time because it’s that comfortable! I wasn’t even aware that they made something like this. It is a blessing! My poor father now has a permanent not on the top of his head where he hit the rail of the garage door. But never again will I have to worry about him having to get stitches because he hits it so hard. I can not thank the person who came up with this brilliant idea enough!!

This "cap" saved my husband from serious injury. My husband has Parkinson's disease and had DBS surgery six years ago. His walker caught on a threshold in our home and he fell. Although he broke his nose in two places and had several facial lacerations, the CT scan showed no further damage even though his head had hit the ceramic floor and the door jamb. I had just placed his helmet on him shortly before his fall. I highly recommend this protective cap for anyone who is concerned about falling. Besides, this cap looks really good on him! No one knows it's a helmet.

I bought this and the bump cap liners from the same company (Skullerz) at the same time and I prefer the liners hands down. 1st, this hat weighs 8.5 ounces whereas the liners weigh 2.5 ounces. It's surprisingly heavy. 2nd, they say one size fits all but it really doesn't. The liners are more adjustable for size and more comfortable. 3rd this hat looks dorky whereas the liners fit inside just about any kind of hat that has a sweat band on the inside. I even put a liner inside a wide brim sun hat and it fit perfectly. So, for those multiple reasons I decided to return this hat and stick with the liners. I can't see myself ever wearing this to work because of the weight, uncomfortable fit, and the way it looks. You can also buy a pack of 2 liners for less than the cost of this hat.

protect your head

Me ha resultado magnifica. Trabajo supervisando obra en construcción, cuando esta ya se encuentra en terminación donde no existen riesgos puedo prescindir del casco formal usar la gorra que me provee un nivel de protección basico y que es mas confortable para esta etapa. Me ayuda bastante con la protección solar y no es para nada incomoda. A su vez su diseño me permite acomodar mi cabello sin problemas.

Fits well and does its job, I am forever E hitting my head on my RV slide outs and this is light but strong enough to prevent injury.

Its nice and amazon u r toooo good for everything and already place an another order from amazon best of luck amazon for future

superb, I am a seafarer amd i will use in engine room, i know it is not approved but normally working without helmet, i think it will be a good option, i tried it, it is very comfortable and good fitting

My husband with an abi wears these 24/7. They get stinky with sweat but have saved him headaches from minor bumps for years
