Hi Huge,
just seen your post on on what fire helmet is the most popular. The MSA F1SF or the Gallent F1 as it is also kown has very good eye protection and a full face shield, both fold into the skull of the helmet.Hearing can be a problem as your ears are inlcosed also it lacks shoulder protection because of the snug fit to the side of the head. I can't say if they are made in the U.S. As for wearing them with SCBA we remove our lid and put triditional mask straps on followed by our flash hood and then helmet. the clips are around but i have not seen them or used them here in Ireland. One other disadvantage older firefighters have told me is that they don't allow the feeling of heat on your ears, but i have never been trained on that technique so am not in a place to comment.

Hope this helps!
TCSS, Kevin Higgins
