Based on the German M35 designed the previous year, the M36 was the Russian soldiers' helmet of choice through 1940. They had good ventilation, though they also suffered problems with the fragile leather lining and chinstraps. And, during the Winter War against Finland, the lining was often torn out so soldiers could fit their wool caps inside.
This steel replica of the recognizable Soviet helmet features the famous sickle and hammer painted in red on the front, an adjustable cloth liner, and an adjustable chinstrap with buckle.
