Ottoman Turban Helmet for Buhurt Full Contact
Turban-type helmet inspired by historical analogs and sources from the 15th century. The dome geometry and overall layout are intended for full contact, balancing impact management with practical movement in clinch-heavy fighting.
The set includes a mail aventail, a padded helmet liner with pelerine, and straps. The aventail adds perimeter protection around the neck and collar area, the liner helps distribute load and stabilize the fit, and the strap system lets you tune positioning with your chosen under-gear.
- Protection: contact-oriented shell plus added coverage from the aventail.
- Mobility: padded interfaces help reduce rubbing during head work and grappling.
- Fit: liner + straps help limit rotation and shift under grabs.
- Serviceability: straps and padding are wearable parts and are straightforward to swap when they fatigue.
For tournaments and club fights, follow the requirements of your specific ruleset. Checks typically focus on thickness/heat-treatment options, vulnerable-zone coverage, and a correct padding system. This helmet is designed with common checks in mind, but acceptance depends on setup and event rules.
