> A “conventional” fiberglass/carbon fiber hard hat is already like $150.

According to TFA:

> WaveCel hard hats cost $169 to $189, which is several times the amount for a standard hard hat and more than many premium models, including some with MIPS technology.




Fiberglass/carbon fiber are the high end models of “conventional” hard hats to which im referring. Basic ones can be as cheap as like $20. Style hard hats like ones that look like a cowboy hat are like $300.

Edit: “conventional” as being without any newer technology like wavecel
