The Kettle hat was mainly worn during the Medieval period in Europe by infantry soldiers. It takes its name because of the resemblance to a cooking pot (kettle)

The wide brim provided good protection against blows from above, such as from cavalry swords, and was very useful in siege warfare as the wide brim would protect the wearer from projectiles shot or dropped from above.

This helm comes with adjustable leather webbing and sturdy chinstrap with period buckle.
