Italian Crests
#6
Have a look into this threadIt is suggested here that crests may have also been a method of reinforcing the helmet.

Whether this is true or not, it is undoubtable that the crests would have been damaged during battle. Being removable would make them easier to replace, or even repair without being attached to the helmet.
