The dense cellular structure acts as a natural heat barrier, blocking harsh solar radiation. Covered in durable \u003cb\u003ekhaki drill cloth\u003c\/b\u003e, it repels blazing heat and sheds light rain during outdoor treks, historical displays, or period living history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eAnti-Glare Lining and Active Airflow\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe underside features a traditional \u003cb\u003edark green cotton lining\u003c\/b\u003e that cuts harsh ground glare and reduces eye strain in bright daylight. Above, a raised \u003cb\u003eventilator cap\u003c\/b\u003e and crown eyelet work with the suspended cradle. This internal offset lets air flow freely across your scalp, quickly venting heat rather than trapping moisture during warm-weather use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eAdjustable Harness and Secure Fit\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInside, an adjustable faux-leather sweatband uses a clean \u003cb\u003ehook-and-loop closure\u003c\/b\u003e to fit head sizes up to 60cm. Spaced cord lacing keeps the shell floating off your brow for all-day comfort. A buckled \u003cb\u003echinstrap\u003c\/b\u003e keeps the helmet firmly seated during windy field days, or rests across the front brim for a classic uniform look.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdd this classic sun helmet to your collection or field kit for reliable hot-weather shading.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mil-Tec","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56393029517697,"sku":"SKU2235U","price":28.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0220\/2076\/files\/2235-british_army_tropical_pith_helmet-1.jpg?v=1791897066","url":"https:\/\/checkout.surplusqm.com\/products\/british-army-tropical-pith-helmet","provider":"Surplus Quartermasters","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
