Beschreibung«I’m not completely convinced this aluminium helmet would save you from a falling brick, but displayed here, removed from the realities of the building site, it’s a fascinating object. Hats are often pleasing shapes but this one is especially well formed in pressed aluminium with a ridged crown for extra resistance and a brim which is wide at the front to keep the sun out of your eyes and stylishly narrows towards the back. Inside there’s an equally refined suspension system to keep a sensible distance between the head and the outer surface.»
