Product description

Turban helmet is a straightforward Eastern-style build referenced from historical sources and period analogues of Iran/Turkey, 14–15th century. A clean dome and minimal moving parts reduce failure points and keep the helmet serviceable after hard exchanges. Material and thickness options are selected on the product page to match your weight/rigidity target.

Protection is focused on typical buhurt/full-contact impact zones: the dome manages top and diagonal strikes, the nasal bar stiffens the centerline, and the mail aventail wraps the neck, throat and lower face while preserving breathing and hearing.

Mobility: open eye line provides workable vision; the aventail moves with the head and stays usable in clinch.
Fit: supplied with a padded liner featuring hidden reinforcing plates and retention straps; size is chosen by head circumference with allowance for an arming cap.
Serviceability: mail and strap hardware can be maintained with standard consumables (rings, straps, rivets); drying, cleaning and corrosion protection are the main routine tasks.

The construction is intended for full-contact armored fighting formats (buhurt/armored combat) and typically passes event checks when assembled correctly and kept in safe condition. Final acceptance is always decided by the specific event’s technical commission, as rules and required protective elements may vary.
