How many of you recreational/occasional users use one of these helmets?
Princess Auto sells a combination face shield and ear muffs, but no option for a hard hat.
I don't think that safety really has a price... overkill is definitely not a bad thing,
PA sells their mask for $20, I'm sure the unit I'm referring to is likely triple in price... I don't think I'll be felling many trees, because 90% of the stuff I'll be chopping up will already be down from storms etc.
I see that Stihl and Husky both offer the same style helmet,
Is one really better over the other? I'm looking for comfort more than ease of adjust-ability since I'll be the only one wearing the equipment (I don't like sharing - cooties )
Edit:
I need CHAPS too!
Decent suppliers in Canada? Or would I be better off just getting some from the dealer?
