I bought one,but I shall not again!.A veritable beast to put on,and when after hours of trying you succeed, you will deeply sigh with relief and have a far deeper appreciation of child birth!. That is to say, it is just like the real thing,except hopefully you are not doing it to make your head a harder target for a German sniper,but rather to make your battered Helmet look cooler.BTW I would not recommend putting one of these one a precious museum piece because there is a danger of losing paint!.As far as the actual item is concerned,It is a hessian cover.it goes on a british helmet.it can in no way be concidered different from the originals as I believe their was no real standard or conformity in the historical examples.
