Product description

The helmet is based on an original from the early 16th century. In the first half of the 16th century, the cabasset emerged in Spain. Cabassets were mainly produced in Calatayud, a city in Aragón. Like morions, the cabasset was worn by infantry in pike and shot formations. It was popular in 16th-century England and was employed during the English Civil War. It was one of the most popular helmets of the late 15th and 16th centuries.

Several of these helmets were brought to the New World by the Pilgrim Fathers, and one such example was found on Jamestown Island. Thanks to its brim, the cabasset offers excellent protection against downward strikes and projectiles. The brim is slightly curved upward so as not to obstruct the wearer's field of vision.

The cabasset features a leather lining and a chin strap.
