HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT HELMET SIZE?
A medieval helmet is generally worn with an padded arming cap, for comfort. To choose the right helmet size, you should measure your head circumference WITH the arming cap, and generally add 1 cm (for safety/comfort). We also offer excellent arming caps, which typically add around 4-5 cm to your head circumference. Feel free to check our catalogue. Click here!
