We have the Dura arming cap and the cento worn under his helmet by Ammianus' companion after his escape from Amida (Amm. 19.8.8) and we may perhaps infer (but without direct evidence, I think) that a Roman soldier might simply put his helmet on over a Phrygian or Pannonian cap but an adjustable helmet liner, in my opinion, requires direct evidence.
