Stihl Climbing/Arborist Helmet?

[BrokenSVT]

I broke my good ol' Stihl helmet the other day. The shell is cracked and so it's kaput. I'm looking to replace it.

I saw that there is a Stihl-branded version of the Petzl Vertex Vent, complete with visor and hearing protection for a good bit cheaper than the Petzl offering. I also noticed it doesn't seem to be anywhere on the web, aside from Ebay Great Britain?

Is this thing available in the USA without the longish wait from overseas?

I also saw a few other Stihl-branded climbing helmets. I'd be interested on info about those as well...

The petzl aveo helmet is much much more comfortable than the vertex vent... husqvarna has the aveo with muffs and shield. Worth looking at. I switched to the aveo 2 years or so ago, wear it daily I feel naked without it lol.
