The UST® LowRider Traditional Fire Helmet with NFPA Bourke Shield and FireFit® Comfort System - Matte Finish combines the classic appearance of a traditional fire helmet with lightweight construction, a lower ride height, enhanced comfort, and NFPA-certified eye protection. Designed with a lower center of gravity, the UST® LowRider provides a secure, balanced feel that helps reduce fatigue and improve stability during extended structural firefighting operations.
One of the lightest traditional fire helmets available, the UST® LowRider comes standard with Bullard's FireFit® Comfort System, a one-piece, quick-release interior that contours to the wearer's head, helps distribute pressure, and simplifies cleaning and decontamination. This configuration also includes the NFPA-Certified Bourke Eye Shield, providing 27% more coverage area with convenient one-handed flip-up and flip-down operation. The super matte finish completes the traditional design with a modern, low-glare appearance.
