Helmet lining for late roman helmets
#8
I love the arming cap design and it seems to fit the period really well based on the examples you have provided. I have a leather-edged Berkasovo-style helmet and while the leather takes the edge off, it certainly needs an arming cap underneath. I use an old second-hand sheepskin hat sometimes stuffed with an old sock at the apex for that extra cushioning against mace blows!
