Mil-Tec Helmen 16686000 Kaki One Size

しっかりした作りです。帽体の厚みは約１２ｍｍ、茶色の合皮のライナーが金具でしっかり留められています。内側も緑色の布地で覆われていて帽体の素材は判りませんがプラスチックや発泡スチロールでは無さそうです。Pith helmetのピス（マメ科の髄）なのか樹皮なのかまあそんなところでしょう。頭頂部にベンチレーションの金具がしっかり留められています。質量は200g位で工事現場で使うプラスチックのヘルメットよりだいぶ軽いです。後ろの庇の部分は野外では無防備になる後頚部を強い日差しや物理的な衝撃から保護することが出来ます。ベルクロの調整範囲は55ｃｍから57ｃｍといったところでしょうか欧米人の頭の形に合うようにやや長丸です。頭のサイズや形によっては内壁に干渉してしまうように思われます。まだ地球上に未開の探検すべき所の在った時代のデザインのヘルメットをかぶって郊外の野山を散策するのもちょっとした探検気分を味わえるような気がします。

It’s a nice costume piece, especially for the price, but the details are definitely lacking. I’m using it as a costume accessory so I’m rating it accordingly.The puggaree wrapping started to come off almost immediately. It’s made of separate scrap strips of canvas, not one long piece, and held in by a few stitches and some glue. I planned to remove them anyway so it didn’t bother me but I would recommend adding more glue if you want them to retain their shape.The leather liner is decent, with a Velcro closure to adjust fit. The chinstrap isn’t really usable except as decoration across the brim. The leather strap is too thin, unfinished on one side, and features a (sharp edged) stamped metal buckle. It is adjustable enough you can get it over your chin but it’s not practical or comfortable to do so.On the plus side, the canvas is good quality and applied well. The overall shape is accurate and symmetrical. I can’t tell if it is pith, cork, or something else but it is a good balance between sturdy and lightweight.All told, it’s nowhere near the quality of a vintage pith helmet but it’s really hard to beat for the price.

Très bonne qualité. Pour info, mon ami fait un tour de tête de 57,5. Il va très bien. Il y a une petite marge.

Great lid, get comments from everyone and all positive. It is also very useful when driving the convertible, it keeps the sun off my ears and neck.

Ottimo, giunto nelle migliori condizioni. Leggero, curato nei dettagli, perfetta riproduzione dell'elmetto coloniale kaki da ufficiale britannico.
