Helmets are usually made of sheet steel with a thickness of 1.0mm, 1.5mm or 2 mm plate. 80% of the population fits into the periphery 58cm to 60 cm head circumference, but we attempt to maintain a healthy stock of all sizes of all helmets. Helmets are made to order, so take advantage of this option and let us know your head dimensions, in accordance with the figure. Always include the exact circumference of your head and information about what you will wear underneath the helmet (eg. padded cap). If you do not already own padding, we can recommend a padded arming cap to order from our menu.
Helmets require similar care as swords, chainmail etc. After battle keep them in a dry area and keep lightly oiled.
