Open Crown Hat The shell on most hard hats is made out of a high-density polyethylene (HDPE) due to the high impact resistance and lightweight design for long-term wear. Some industrial helmets are also made using a material called Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) which has a good impact and chemical resistance, great for industrial environments.

At the same time, the hat could be used to transport water from a spring to the man’s lodgings. Founder of the renowned brand, John B. Stetson, got the idea for this revolutionary hat when he realized that his tent, which was made from the same material, was absolutely watertight, even during the heaviest showers. An oval crown and round wide brim sets the gambler cowboy hat apart from all others. This style is another great choice for adding edge to your look.

Originally beginning with John Batterson Stetson, who created the American cowboy hat, the hats were often worn by Western farmers or ranchers who spent most of their time outside. Then this special fur is made into felt using different wet or dry processes to align and condense the fibres. The felt is made more pliable by working it, often with a combination of handmade and machine processes, contributing to the overall quality of the hat. The density of the best felts offer excellent rain and sun protection and this quality will increase the price. Stetson offers the right products for not only every temperature but also for every occasion. For sport, a classic cap; casual jeans for a party, and not forgetting the matching shirt. For the opera, a bowler hat and perhaps a top hat for one’s own wedding. Even driving a sports car becomes a stylish occasion, thanks to Stetson’s aviator hat and sunglasses.

Some lightweight felt hats may be treated with Scotchguard or a similar product to help increase water resistance of the felt. Felt can even be synthetically made but most hat enthusiasts feel the quality is not the same as rabbit or fox felt. It was not long before Stetson caps were also added to the company’s range. Today, anyone who’s into timeless headwear knows about the Hatteras peaked caps from the Stetson company. You should only use a bump cap instead of a safety helmet in an environment with a significantly lower risk of injury and confined spaces. Bump caps are typically vented and lightweight, making them ideal for low-maintenance outdoor work and household maintenance such as roof work or small renovations. Depending on the environment or even time of year, you may need to wear either vented or non-vented head protection. With vented industrial headgear, the open frame design prevents heat buildup around the head, allowing air to circulate and keep employees cool during summer months. The non-vented hard hat is made to retain heat, and keep the head warm in colder conditions.EN 397 is the standard specification for industrial safety helmets, which ensures the head does not receive the full force, pressure or weight of any impact. BS EN 397 safety headgear is also required in work such as forestry or tree surgery where chainsaw personal protective equipment is required. Hard hats and protective headwear that complies with this legislation have been thoroughly tested to withstand impacts and protect the wearer’s skull. Many of Seton’s construction helmets and hard hats actually exceed the EN 397 safety code. Stetson hats are recognized across the globe. It all began with the so-called “10 gallon hat”, a hat in which you could transport 10 gallons of water. It was crafted from waterproof felt material to protect its wearer from foul and showery weather. Tom Mix, the American silent movie star, was known for his 10-gallon cowboy hat. When your goal is to make a statement with your hat or be dramatic, the 10-gallon is the best choice. 7. Derby Hat
