Funny thing is these don't meet ANSI Z89.1 and therefore can't be used in most workplaces

It doesn't have to be safe ... it just has to 'look' safe

Yeah, some people with clipboards and orange vests came by, and they said it's fine.

They were killed later that day from a falling I-beam that was unsecured

that would kill you anyway...

Is it because the strength of the arch is diminished by the crease? Or because it could channel a falling sharp object into rather than away from one's skull?

That was my first thought. The only way this could be somewhat safe is if the hat aesthetic was a flimsy facade and would crumple at the slightest pressure, and underneath the facade was an actual hard hat.

Tory Bruno, CEO of ULA wears a cowboy hard hat. Clearly this is how you become rich.

Unfortunately these buffs don't stack. And the effect only works when constructing large enough engineering feats where people have to look straight up to see the whole thing.

I don't need the job. I need the hat.

If you wear it, they will come.

If they got pissed off enough, I bet you were glad you had it.
