About Black Helmet Firefighters Apparel

Black Helmet Apparel was founded by a fireman for firefighters. All the designs are hand drawn, and unique. You'll find no clip art here. You'll only find the images that relay the fearless, but frightening side of our job. One look should invoke the feeling you feel on the way to the column, and the satisfaction you feel once the fire is out. We don't want cheesy sayings. Just the simple message. Smoke Showin'. Aggressive Attack. Adapt and Overcome. Fight Fire. Fire Out.

sums it up with this comment:

My boyfriend and I are in the department. We both started off as firefighters, but he climbed the ranks and is currently a battalion chief while I chose to spend the rest of my career on the engine. I bought a few Black Helmet Apparel shirts and a cap, and he expressed a little 'tude about why there wasn't any WHITE helmet apparel choices. Sour grapes.

He recently ate some smoke on an amazing rescue, which COOKED his pristinely white helmet....it's almost completely black. So, you guessed, he's back in "the club"....I let him have my Black Helmet baseball cap, he's sporting it very proudly.

This is how we live. It's what we love. Protect the public, and the brother or sister at your side. Remember those who went before. Teach the new ones coming up. We put on the brotherhood when we put on that Helmet.
