Ribbed dome keeps stiffness while staying manageable in weight; the mail aventail wraps the neck, collarbones and upper shoulders without locking head turns. Open face line improves breathing and awareness in clinch work. Cheek plates add side impact management. Fit is tuned via size choice and suspension/liner setup; the aventail and fasteners are serviceable for field repairs. Geometry is made with typical tournament inspection points in mind (rules vary by league).

Product description

Eastern ribbed helmet “Khorosan” is a practical build for full-contact armored combat (melee/duel). The silhouette is based on historical sources and 14th-century Eastern analogs often shown on steppe and Mongol warriors, without claims of absolute one-to-one reconstruction.

Protection: stiffening ribs reinforce the dome and help spread impact over a wider area. A mail aventail is fixed along the lower edge to cover throat, neck and the top of the shoulders; added cheek plates take glancing side hits and keep clearance from the face.

Mobility & awareness: the open face line avoids a heavy visor, supports breathing and communication, and keeps peripheral awareness in close work. The aventail acts as flexible protection, allowing head rotation while maintaining coverage.

Fit: stability comes from correct sizing and proper suspension/liner setup. The dome geometry and seating line are designed around common head proportions to keep the center of mass close to the neck axis.

Service & maintenance: the construction is convenient to keep running—mail sections and fasteners can be repaired or replaced, and routine care is simple: rinse, dry, and protect the steel after events.

Tournament checks: coverage and edge solutions are made with typical inspection requirements of full-contact formats in mind (e.g., HMB, IMCF, ACL). Always verify your league’s rulebook and use an appropriate padded liner; final approval is up to the marshals.
