WW2 German Army BLACK M35 STEEL HELMET with Leather Liner & Chin Strap Fantastic reproduction of the German M35 Helmet in black, as worn by Wehrmacht forces on entry into WW2. The M35 Helmet was largely based upon its WW1 predecessor, but with a few modifications for the new image and need of the Wehrmacht forces. They were the first helmets used by German troops at the beginning of WW2. The M35s have a rolled steel edge, later economised on the M42 model. These brilliant reproductions are made from a tough steel, 1.6mm like the originals, and have been sprayed here at Epic in the black of the German elite. They also come with a quality leather liner, with a leather drawstring and chin strap already attached. They are also stamped as the originals were, with the dated manufacturer mark at the centre of the helm. They are also marked with the shell size, with the "ET-66" example in the linked photo denoting Eisenwerke Thale, the firm responsible for the original designing and manufacture of the helmets. We had them made in two different pot sizes allowing us to fit different liners, giving us sizes from 56-63cm! These are quality Helmets, the best repro on the market for the money!
