Leather made even better. Phenix Technology makes its leather helmet shells from only the finest top grain cowhide. This exceptionally strong, flexible leather provides the traditional look that so many firefighters cherish. But that’s where the resemblance to 19th Century fire helmets ends. Firefighting has changed. PPE has changed accordingly. Even leather has changed. Phenix found that a leather helmet kept soft and flexible will stand as much or more abuse than the early leather helmets, and even more than many of today’s finest modern composites. So instead of recreating the rock-hard leather helmets of yesterday, Phenix uses modern vegetal tanning techniques to add a degree of flexibility to the longer, rear brim so it will flex when hit by falling objects rather than snap the firefighter’s neck. And because the raised crossover beams are more resilient, they also provide added protection when struck from above. It also keeps the leather from cracking—so you can expect old-fashioned value as well. Advanced comfort. Phenix gives its traditional design the same low center of gravity, reduced profile, and ergonomic correctness that make modern style Phenix helmets feel lighter, more stable, and simply more comfortable. With its popular ratcheting adjustment system, the exclusive Phenix suspension liner lets you simply dial in a precise fit with the helmet on. In seconds, with one hand, you can adjust the size to accommodate a hood, SCBA mask, or just the changes that come from exertion and long periods in high temperatures. It means you’ll always enjoy the advanced comfort and superior fit that has made Phenix helmets such a popular choice, in any style. Standard Model TL-2 with Bourkes meets OSHA requirements.
