Leatherhelms
The shape of steel...the warmth of leather.
 
 
Leatherhelms produces handcrafted
leather helmets, modeled after the metal
spangenhelms worn by fighting men
of the Middle Ages.
 
As featured in Rochester Magazine
 

 
  These helmets are riveted,  four-panel helmets, made of heavy saddle leather.  They are precisely cut and molded into curved shapes, then hardened, using the cuir bouilli method.  Finally, they are buffed with beeswax as a preservative.
