Default Helmet cover on a hardhat?

Sometimes at work I have to wear a hardhat and I was thinking of changing it up a bit, I was wondering if an M1 helmet cover would even come close to fitting it?

I dont have dimensions on the hardhat and I realize that there are a ton of different sizes, just wondering if the covers have adjustment to them and what you guys think.

Don't. A hardhat has to meet a number of criteria other than impact resistance to meet the ANSI standard for protective headgear. It includes resistance to electrical current and fire resistance. leave your skid lid alone!

What is a "Skid Lid"? Oh, I know you mean "Brain Bucket"!
