Looks great, mediocre sweatband (4/5) | Apr 18, 2012 | Matt G | North Texas TX US |

The hat looks great. It's robust, with a great feel. The only drawback is that "genuine leather" sweatband. It has a waxy covering on it, making it about as breathable as vinyl. NOT comfortable when in the heat that this helmet is designed for. Note that it's a close fit for my head, and I usually can find hats. The aluminum air vent liners are sort of tacky, but are undoubtedly better than something that would oxidize and run. They just could have used some finer casting; they look rough. The stitching and cut and all is top drawer. The look overall is great. Note that the leather strap is NOT adjustable, but it can be used under the chin. I haven't yet had the guts to immerse it in water, because it looks so great as it is. I have used it for shedding rain during rainstorms, and it did great. Looks excellent with a kilt and a Webley. Trust me. |
