Original CHILEAN Army German Styled M35 PARADE HELMET. The odd thing is that the Chilean army decal is on the wrong side. Maybe a error when manufacturing? This helmet is complete with liner and chinstrap. Rare and hard to find helmet here in the US. Made of a Vulkan fiber type material, it is very light. I believe this one was manufactured in the early 90’s. These are still used ceremonially in Chilean military parades along with very German influenced uniforms. I recommend you look up on youtube. Please look at the last picture where it is beside my WW2 German M35, This gives you an idea of size and slight shape difference. The parade helmet sits taller and more narrow. I don’t want to see it go but for the right price she could be yours!! Condition is New Old Stock. The item “CHILEAN Army German Styled M35 PARADE HELMET” is in sale since Thursday, June 10, 2021.
