I have a really nice expensive one and a really cheap one. The nice one has padding inside and the strap part that fits to your head has a little turn dial for tightening so it stays on your noggin better. The cheap one has none of that. The adjusting strap for sizing on the cheapie is similar to the perforated plastic strap on a baseball cap. One thing I just learned about hard hats is that there is a standard for colors, coded for each trade. Managers wear white, safety inspectors wear green, and electricians wear (blue?), ect.... Exciting stuff!! Psych.

I had a blue one that I spray painted white and I got called out on it because the act of painting it voids the safety warranty. Oops.....
