Sorry Matt, but I disagree with you 100%. Guess we'll just have to agree to disagree on this one. Do you also have a rough idea as to how wide the modern straps are, versus the antique? I'm interested to see the margin of error that you deem acceptable, and not. And having a strap that is 1/8" thicker on average is NOT even remotely in the same category as the trooper helm.

Also looking at the picture that paul posted, it doesn't look to me like the straps are too wide, but the pattern on the inside isn't cut as close to the edge on some people's caligae as they are on that one. So does that make them elligable for authenticity purgatory, or is that just a personal/stylistic choice?
