Thank you, Cesare,

Again: comparable images of similar objects and sources of illustration would help a lot!

As to your point concerning the shape of the brim deflecting objects from above: I am afraid the actual angle would just direct such objects on the shoulder of the poor guy. Please confer the wider angles of the items I posted.

And: where were the hauberk and wadding fixed? The single existing loop is absolutely insufficient.

Any definite replies to my points in question?!

How thick is the avarage iron?

Best,
Michael
