Hi,

I am visiting a customer in a couple of weeks where I will need PPE for moving around the site.

Due to Covid I have been told I need to provide my own kit.

Looking at hard hats available at Screwfix, Toolstation etc. they all seemto be one size fits all which worries me as I have a large head. I normally wear Giro Large (59-63cm) helmets on the bike.

Are these hard hats suitable for oversized bonces or are there other suppliers that make a range of sizes? - not looking to spend too much as it will only be used a few times per year.

Links to recommended suppliers would be great 🙂

Yeah. I wear a large in cycle helmets and have never had a problem wearing a hard hat when I used to do site stuff.

I have a massive napper as well.

I stick to Giro cycle helmets, as a lot of other brands are just too small.

I find that the better quality hard hats, with a wheel and ratchet size adjustment, to go a bit larger than the cheaper ones.

Something like this https://www.screwfix.com/p/centurion-concept-reduced-peak-vented-safety-helmet-white/5739f
