For Costume Use Only
Rome was built on the back of Greek politics, pasta was inspired by Asian noodles from Marco Polo's travels, and Beretta improved on Walther's P-38 with the 92. The Italian Peninsula has always been a hub of refinement, and when it comes to the SEPT2 ballistic helmet—things are no different.
If you take the PASGT helmet as a starting point, you've got a fairly good idea of what you're signing on for with one of these: solid protection for your head, temple, and ears from pistol threats and shrapnel. The SEPT2 is also pretty comfortable, easy to adjust, and quick to don and doff. These '90s-style helmets may have been declared obsolete by the Italian government, but they hold up pretty good. (And to be fair, a lot of the Italian army still uses the SEPT2, so take that as you will...)
We Shot it a Bunch
Legally speaking we can't recommend these for anything other than 'costume use.' Of course that didn't stop us from shooting one. Our conclusion? These helmets are roughly NIJ II. In our casual test the helmet stopped NATO spec 124gr 9x19 and super hot Egyptian +P+ smg ammo. A human head likely wouldn't have a great day, but we weren't able to penetrate the helmet.
These helmets are a limited-time offering. We aren't expecting to get more in, so grab one while you can!

It's pretty good.
The helmet strap is weird, and it's a little banged up but it's rad for the price honestly. Kommando has always been pretty good, and it's run by the right people so if you're gonna buy one anywhere might as well be here.

LIKE THE DOLLARS TRILOGY, ITALIAN-MADE AMERICAN STYLE
Large size, Good condition.
The helmet in good condition looks identical to the helmet in the pictures; with the finish worn on the edges a few small chips on the inside. The woodland cover is a very tight fit, but it fits. Retained by friction and three straps that connect to the suspension. Other covers for PASGT fit. The styrofoam padding on the circular padding is old, and so it makes a bit of a mess each time its rubbed. However, it can be removed and cleaned up then put back in. Not too tight inside if you want to add aftermarket padding.
Compared to US kevlar helmet, it is very similar, but the chin strap is significantly better than stock PASGT. For the price, it is very good.
