Portwest PW59 Lightweight EVA Safety Work Bump Cap with Long Peak - Adjustable Workwear Ventilated Hat, Navy

I ordered this becuase of the low ceilings and beams where I work. It’s very sturdy and fits comfortably.

Useful addition to my gardening kit when cutting overhead branches, it acts as a had hat while looking more like a baseball cap

A well made protective hat, although it only comes in one size and is on the large side for my head. I added some extra padding at the sides and it is a better fit!

I was shown one of these caps by a friend, who received it as a Christmas present. The cap was a great price and arrived very quickly. Haven't used it yet, but know it will be handy for the future e.g. working in my house loft putting in additional loft insulation. As it states on a label inside the cap it is NOT an industry approved hard hat. However it has a solid plastic liner, with a high density compression foam (don't know correct term) stretching back to front across the middle to cushion the top of your head if you came into contact with a hard surface - whether wood or brick etc. This simple safety cap could help you avoid nasty bumps and bruises, and help avoid more serious injuries.

Ideal and comfy

This hat is fairly generous in size but gives plenty of protection. I find it useful when mowing under trees with low branches but it will obviously have many uses

Found the plastic shell wasn't secure inside the fabric so the forehead band slipped and digged in - returned for refund

Lightweight, not bad value, but ventilation is sadly lacking. Due to it's plastic construction and no vent holes further up on the cap, the cap became very wet even in realitively cool temperatures.
