Air-Cooled Hard Hat
Hard Hats are a type of helmet that are primarily used in a workplace environment such as road building and construction sites. The product is designed to protect the head of the wearer from falling objects or from scraping of bumping the head on equipment or projected objects. The hard hat is held on the head by a suspension which attaches to the helmet. However, the typical hard hat can become very hot inside when the wearer is active in the sun or a hot environment and begins to perspire since the top of the head is essentially a radiator for the body. The temperature inside the normal hard hat will increase as the heat and perspiration on the top of the wearer's head has no way to escape which can increase the potential for heat stress or heat stroke.

History
The Cool Hard Hat was invented by Mr. Tom English, a general contractor in Oklahoma City who spent several years in the development before finally obtaining a US Patent (USPTO No. 7,114,194). The patent was acquired in 2010 by Cool Hard Hat, Inc. and the product was formally introduced into the market at the Tulsa Pipeline Expo in September 2010 where it received the award as the "Best New Product of the Year".

Since the summer of 2011, the product has been sold both online and direct to users all across the USA and into several foreign markets. In the Fall of 2011, the Cool Cap design was completed and it was introduced in the summer of 2012.
