In that pic of the collection of helmets found on Iwa Jima, I noted you said comes in either small or large sizes. I was wondering if Japanese helmets came in sizes the way the Germans' did. What about repro helmets? I have one from Stewart's. It fits, but is small looking on me compared to an original Russian helmet I have. Do they make repros in various sizes also? If so, where can I find a larger size?
Thanks,

The Japanese just did the two sizes of helmet shells, large and small then you tried to make it comfortable with the adjustable liner in side.

The reprosonly really come from Stewerts. you could try searching ebay as there are a few sellers on there now from china doing helmets, they make have different sizes but they will probaly turn out to be the same size shell
