The Militiaman (Kettle Helm)
In stock and ready to ship
Ships from the USA in 1 to 3 business days
Not every soldier got a fancy helm. Most got one of these. The kettle helm, a wide-brimmed iron hat, was the everyday headgear of medieval foot soldiers, archers, and town militia, cheap to make and good at turning aside an arrow or a blow from above. This is the honest helmet of the common ranks, the one kings hand out when raising an army from farmers and townsfolk in search of riches.
Why builders like it
- Born for the ranks. The classic helmet of militia, levies, archers, and foot soldiers. Perfect for the everyday troops who fill out a battle line.
- Build a whole army. Plain, sturdy, and made to be issued in numbers. Field a dozen, a hundred, or however big your host needs to be.
- Honest protection. The wide brim shields the head and shoulders from above. No frills, just the dependable helmet that kept common soldiers alive.
