| Description: | The Original Leather Helmet! With almost 165 years of experience to draw upon, Cairns Helmets manufactures the only 100% leather helmet with the reputation that firefighters across America can count on. |
I own two of these helmets and I must say the two greatest helmets I have ever owned. It may be a little heavier then most others but the tradition of a leather helmet makes the little bit of extra weight seem like nothing. "Leather Forever"
hey nothing like a good old custom Fire Helment
Leather Forever!
This is the only fire helmet in my opinion. It just defines you as a firefighter the tradition and symbolism behind it is the fire service
Leather & Tradition, need I say more?
I HAVE ONE
Cairns is still the standard all the other manufacturers hope to be. Once you wear a leather helmet you'll not want to go back. Leather forever!
My first helmet was a leather. It save my life. I will always were a New York Style
I am a long time leather head. I curentley own 4, my original non osha, 2 N5As and a N6A Houston. The newer style are heavier and do not seem to be as comfortable as the older ones. One of the biggest down falls of the leather helmet is price $400.00 plus for that you can get two polycarb helmets. Tradition and history live on by wearing leather.
Leather Forever!
This is the only fire helmet in my opinion. It just defines you as a firefighter the tradition and symbolism behind it is the fire service. I started with Leather over 30 years ago.
GREATEST
The little give that the leather has is a much better absortion factor to me then the rigid hard my 1010 i wore cracked all the way from right to left along the brim. Not a very secure feeling to me.
great helment
JUST GOT MY 1044 WITH BOURKES AND ESS PLUS ADDED NEW HELMET CAM. BEST HELMET FOUND YET!
I Have One
I feel this is the safest hhelmet in the service and it has been around the longest that speaks for itself.
when we switched to these helments and Black turnout gear it really made department moral high
Leather or not Cairns bros know how to make them. i have both a 1010 with bourkes and a Sam Huston with bourkes and both are suburb I would own only leather however but my career department will not allow the leather due to the fact we don't have a dedicated HM team and when the time comes we have to wear our gear in "It would get contaminated" boo hoo! but i actually bought my leather used because i could not afford one new but if i had the money i would buy another one. The 1010 fits better and rides better and flat out looks better.
