The Ergodyne Skullerz 8950 is a baseball-style bump cap with a hard ABS plastic insert inside a fabric cap shell, offered in micro, short and long brim profiles and four colors, for low-clearance work — it protects against minor bumps to fixed objects; it is not an ANSI Z89.1 hard hat and gives no falling-object protection.

Why the Skullerz 8950 offers three brims from one platform
Low-clearance work is not one-size-fits-all: a tight crawlspace wants a minimal brim, an outdoor yard wants a long one. The Skullerz 8950 covers that from a single platform — a hard ABS insert inside a structured baseball-cap shell, in micro, short and long brim profiles and four colors (Navy, Black, Lime, Factory), so a crew keeps consistent branding while matching brim length to the environment. As bump caps go, this is the brim-flexible pick, and the hard hats vs bump caps guide and the cap-style hard hat guide explain where it fits. It matches the brim to the job without changing platforms.
Safety first: a bump cap guards against minor bumps to fixed objects — it is not an ANSI Z89.1 hard hat and gives no falling-object or electrical protection. Use it only where a falling-object hazard is absent and hard-hat rules do not apply; where a falling-object hazard exists use a rated hard hat, and for work at height use a personal fall arrest system. Run a job hazard analysis to confirm a bump cap suits your environment, and retire the cap if the insert is cracked.
What the Skullerz 8950 listing documents
From the published specs: a baseball-style bump cap with a hard ABS insert; micro, short and long brim profiles; four colors (Navy, Black, Lime, Factory); and a structured fabric shell. These are true baseball bump cap and ABS insert bump cap credentials in low-clearance head protection. Confirm the brim and color on the listing.
How the Skullerz 8950 compares to other bump caps
For a vented two-in-one baseball bump cap, the Pyramex HP500; for a made-in-USA bump cap with a brow pad, the Jackson Safety BC100; for an HDPE vented bump cap, the MSA HDPE Bump Cap; for a 10-color ratchet bump cap insert, the Pyramex Ridgeline; and for a full ANSI hard hat where falling objects are a hazard, browse the hard hats collection. The hard hats vs bump caps guide explains the difference.
Choosing the right head protection
Match the level of protection to the hazard: a bump cap for fixed-object bumps, a hard hat or safety helmet for falling objects. Browse the head protection, safety helmets, and bump caps collections; for hard-hat selection, the best hard hats guide, the construction hard hat guide, the electrical hard hat guide, the hot-work hard hat guide, and the made-in-USA hard hat guide; and for high-visibility color needs, the high-visibility collection.
Where it fits by job and crew orders
The 8950 suits warehouse, distribution, food and beverage, and automotive work under fixed overhead obstructions where a bump cap — not a hard hat — is the right call, and a crew wants brim flexibility with consistent branding — see the safety helmet guide and the full-brim hard hat guide for the step up when falling objects are a hazard. Confirm the brim and color on the listing, and retire the cap if the insert is cracked or it no longer fits securely.

Oh, my poor head!
Perfect for my bald head. It fits comfortably and securely. People with hair don't realize how much it protects the scalp. My poor head will never win a beauty contest because I skin it more than a five-year-old skins his knees. This bump cap is perfect for when I work on my cars and need to get inside a wheel well or under the car to make repairs. The short 1" brim is perfect for such close in work. This is absolutely a great value and the money I save on bandages make it ever more affordable.

Does what it is supposed to do - protect your head
I bought this cap to keep me from whacking my head in the confined engine room of my boat and within a few minutes of putting it on, I had saved myself from two bumps that in the past might have drawn blood. Every time I wear this hat in a confined space, I find there are one or two times it bumps up against something and I say to myself that it has paid for itself yet again. I have recommended them to my friends and know a few have bought them too. While it is not as light or comfortable as a regular baseball cap, it is far better than a hard hat or helmet. I have gone out and about several times while wearing the hat and have not realized I still had it on instead of a regular ball cap. That said, it does not offer the same level of ventilation. If my head is getting warm and a bit sweaty while wearing it in our Houston winter, I can imagine it will be unpleasant in the summer heat. That said, having to deal with blood running down your forehead is worse than having to deal with a bit of sweat, so I will gladly endure the lack of ventilation to get the protection. You can tell there is something different about the hat if you look at it closely, but I think it looks fine. It appears to be well constructed with quality materials.

Great, but the back strap could be better.
No, it doesn’t comply to anything that I’m aware of, however, I will tell you, that it’s great for general protection when you don’t need a hard hat.When I’m on the job site, I don’t often need a hard hat as it’s rare for someone to be working over head. I haven’t used it yet, but I am always wearing a ball cap, so if I feel like my head is gonna hit something that I’m crouching or crawling near this is great. I’ve also dropped my own hammer on my head a few times. Today I actually was wearing it around for house work and my metal tool box lid fell while I was putting some tools away, didn’t feel a thing.Long story short, if you are required to wear a hard hat, but still feel like you should protect your head with good ventilation, this hat is great, and comfy.Cons: it’s shape is a little off, but I suppose that the gap between my head and the top helps protect from shock.The back Velcro strap is pretty lame. I wish it was a clip so that I could make is tight and more solid. Again, I’ve used this to my advantage by putting my ponytail through it which helps hold it down.With a better back strap, it’ll likely not fall off.

It’s PERFECT!
My poor father is notorious for hitting his head. It turned into a family joke at some point! I even bought him his own hardhat for Christmas one year! Lol!Now that he is older, nothing has changed!He and my mom just moved into their new house. He was so proud of himself one day because he indeed hit his head on something in the garage and came in the house just to brag that he hit his head but he was wearing his hardhat! Lol!Then he said he became too hot wearing it so he took it off for a little while and, unfortunately, while it was off he hit his head again on the corner of the garage door rails which are very sharp metal.God love him, he walked into the house and my mom and I were working on other things and he yelled out that he hit his head again! We shook our heads and smiled at each other. Then we heard him say, “ I think it’s serious this time”. When we walked over to see him we were shocked at the amount of blood that was coming down his head.We rushed him to the emergency room and he did in fact have to have staples. My poor daddy! He’s in his 70s. when I heard that he took off the hardhat because it was getting too hot for him I am mediately tried to find a replacement solution. That is when I found this hat! He loves it! He wears it every day all the time because it’s that comfortable! I wasn’t even aware that they made something like this. It is a blessing! My poor father now has a permanent not on the top of his head where he hit the rail of the garage door. But never again will I have to worry about him having to get stitches because he hits it so hard. I can not thank the person who came up with this brilliant idea enough!!

A great comfortable head saver.
This hat is strong, lightweight and comfortable. And fits well. I have to be careful of falls and head bumps. I’ve recommended this hat to many people. Even my doctor has recommended it to patients after seeing it first hand. Well worth the inexpensive cost.

Flawed design - loose and shallow, falls off
Qualifier, I’ve only worn this with a light duty headlamp. So the falling off is partially due to that. 70% the shallow hat, 30% the headlamp.The hat is shallow. I have a normal sized head. If anything, some caps sit too low on my head. This is the first time I’ve experienced the opposite. It reminds me of a yarmulke.The adjustable band is elastic and Velcro with no cinch. So you can only get it so tight, and even then, it flexes. A non flexible band would likey solve this problem. When I wear this hat as tight as comfortably possible, it will often slip right off my head if I lean over too much or for too long.Yes, I have a light headlamp on. But I didn’t have issues with a ball cap. I bought this because to prevent forehead pressure from the headlamp as well as protect my head while working on my car.It’s fine if you’re mostly upright, but if you lean over to look under something, expect it to slide right off your head.

Great protection for those concerned about falling
This "cap" saved my husband from serious injury. My husband has Parkinson's disease and had DBS surgery six years ago. His walker caught on a threshold in our home and he fell. Although he broke his nose in two places and had several facial lacerations, the CT scan showed no further damage even though his head had hit the ceramic floor and the door jamb. I had just placed his helmet on him shortly before his fall. I highly recommend this protective cap for anyone who is concerned about falling. Besides, this cap looks really good on him! No one knows it's a helmet.
