Product description
In the early 14th century, kettle hats like this one with sloped brims appeared. Improved metalworking made it possible and more affordable to mass-produce one-piece kettle hats. The sloped brim deflected projectiles from above, reducing the impact on both the helmet and the head. This type of helmet was so effective that even aristocrats wore it. The brim also protected against downward strikes and projectiles, while providing excellent visibility, good hearing, and optimal protection.
This kettle hat has been specially developed for LARP battles and theater. The helmet is made of 1 mm steel so it is much lighter than a historic helmet. This makes it not suitable for re-enactment battles, but perfect for LARP battles, film, theater, and to wear as an accessory on your costume.
