Deepeeka Roman helmets database - franciscus - 10-22-2013 For some strange-unknown reason, we do not have a kind of database with the correct sizes of the deepeeka roman helmets. This "lacuna" leaves everyone in a "trial and error buy policy" when we want to buy a deepeeka helmet. Retailers often give uncorrect information when you ask for the correct size (they measure often tooo big...) Personally I had to buy 5 helmets before I found the "right-size". So, for the information and to be helpfull of those who want to buy a "right-size", I suggest that we make a list of all helmets with the measurements... Following items should be available : Details(AH6306N) or name or picture of the helmet :................ head circumference : ....................cm long distance (front to back): ............. cm short distance (ear to ear): ...............cm Deepeeka Roman helmets database - Flavivs Aetivs - 10-22-2013 The Gallic A is their Largest Helmet while the Intercisa Helmets are their smallest. All their helmets are "one size fits all." Deepeeka Roman helmets database - jvrjenivs - 10-22-2013 Or ask the seller to measure it for you. Furthermore for perfect fit always get a custom made helmet. It's also hardly immaginable that all original helmets were perfect fit, although some surely did. Deepeeka Roman helmets database - Virilis - 10-23-2013 In general Deepeeka helmets are too round, especially the gallic types. My favourite of their helmets, the Niederbieber, has anatomically a perfect bowl. Deepeeka Roman helmets database - Flavivs Aetivs - 10-23-2013 Their Intercisa Helmets used to be ovoid in shape, but they are now circular. Its actually a good thing because they fit my head.

Good for you! They are now too round and shallow for me, the old ones were better .., Deepeeka Roman helmets database - Flavivs Aetivs - 10-23-2013 Yeah I know, they are pretty shallow, but they're really small so my big head fits perfectly inside the bowl, if it was ovoid it wouldn't fit me at all probably. I never plan to order another one, they don't use the correct cheek pieces anymore. Deepeeka Roman helmets database - dave74 - 11-16-2013 That's the problem I have with my Deepeeka helmets, front to back tight fit, side to side to loose and, shallow. Ear guards sit a good inch above my ears, one day I'll just make my own. Deepeeka Roman helmets database - Pointer - 11-17-2013 And the brow guards breakā¦ THe one I have I took to three different welders and they all said that the metal could not be welded. Deepeeka Roman helmets database - dave74 - 11-17-2013 Hey Patrick, I can take care of that brow guard for you. |
