Product information "Imperial Roman Helmet"
Authentic replica of a 1st century Roman helmet based on a find in Augsburg, Germany.
The Imperial helmet-type was a type of helmet worn by Roman legionaries.
Prior to the Empire, Roman Republican soldiers often provided their own equipment, which was passed down from father to son. Even as the professional Imperial Army emerged, and short-term service citizen soldiers became rare, useful equipment was never discarded.
So when the improved Imperial helmet appeared, it replaced what remained of the very old Coolus type, which was largely superseded at the time by improved versions of the Montefortino helmet type which continued to serve alongside it for a time. This constituted the final evolutionary stage of the legionary helmet (galea).
Our Roman Troopers Helmet is a typical Roman Soldiers helmet that has been copied from originals that have been found and are now in museums. It features hinged cheek plates and brass fittings. An inner adjustable leather liner lends a touch of comfort to its fit, and a chin strap helps secure it to the wearer. This helm is formed of 18 gauge steel and brass, making it perfect for those who wish to create an authentic Roman soldier look.
Based on historical Roman armour

Has inner lining and chin strap for secure wear
Great for recreating the look of a Roman soldier
