HS2:CROATIAN E.S. WINTER COMBAT HELMET:

The particulars of this recreation included refinishing it with dark green (field grey) paint both inside and outside. The exterior was then given a whitewash (winter camouflage) coating with a high degree of wear and age applied. This allows portions of the underlying green finish to show through in places.  The two decals Ire also aged to appear natural and corresponding with the rest of the helmet surface. The interior has an older period, reproduction liner that was upgraded with the addition of the correct felt stripping under the leather. This liner was appropriately aged and is a Ill-matched component in completing the overall impression.

HS2: $350.00

A wonderful representation of the ultra rare combat helmet as worn by members of the Croatian E.S or Einsatzstaffel, (Action Squads) raised from Racial Germans living in Croatia. This museum quality replica captures the essence of the Eastern Front with its authentic whitewash finish. This finish is applied over a standard, smooth feldgrau base, its wear patterns and age discoloration based on studies of original examples. The decals, consisting of the SS inspired double “wolf hooks” and Croat national shield are exposed on both sides as typically seen on such helmets. Examples of this type of helmet are virtually non-existent, making this helmet an excellent and affordable alternative.
