Visored Barbuta Epic Armoury’s Visored Barbuta is a gracefully curved full-helmet with a distinctive visor. The visor is movable and can be flipped up over the helmet. Whether up o r down, the visor can be locked in place with a pin-and-chain. The visor has two rectangular eye-slits, flat nose and a large Maltese-Cross breathing-hole. Wrought to follow the shape of the head and reinforced with a low crest from forehead to neck, the helmet is elegant while still being comfortable to wear. The helmet gives full protection to head except at the throat. The Barbuta was used mainly by the flamboyant Italian mercenaries of the renaissance and was favored with light troops for the mix of protection and excellent visibility. Made to wear with renaissance style clothes, it has a high-fantasy feel that will fit with a lot of characters. Available in Polished Steel and Epic Dark colors Available in sizes M and L This helmet comes with a leather fitting and a foam band for internal adjusting History More accurately resembles a German “sallet” due to the visor Historical design also influenced Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, and Marvel Comics X-Men costumes Show more
