It is exclusive and has been in development for over a year. It was copied from an original. Germany entered WWII with the M-35 helmet as standard issue (WW1 M-16 & M-18 helmets were also in use). In 1942, Due to wartime demands, the M-42 design was put into production because it was significantly quicker to manufacture. The rolled edge of the M-35 shell was eliminated, creating an unfinished edge along the rim. This edge flared out slightly, along the base of the skirt. The elimination of the rolled edge expedited the manufacturing process and reduced the amount of metal used in each helmet, without sacrificing protection. Let us explain precisely why it is the very best M42 reproduction helmet available on the market today: The shell is constructed of 1.8mm steel. The shell is large (size 68) and has the correct M1942 flared edge as well as proper pressed steel ventilation holes. For added authenticity we stamped a German wartime four-digit code at nape and ET68 over ear. The liner comprised of soft tan (cream colored) genuine leather that, just like the originals, will turn brown with age, in correct eight finger configuration with central drawstring and an M1931 aluminum liner band that is maker marked, dated, and size stamped! Liner size can accommodate head sizes 7 1/4 (58cm) up to 7 51/2 (60cm). The all leather chinstrap has a black exterior with tan interior, comes with metal studs, correct aluminum buckle, and connects to the helmet with proper "D" rings. The finish/color is "smooth gray-green" or "field-grau", we worked hard on getting to color correct, which is what typically ruins a reproduction helmet, so hard that we spent 2 months testing formulas to until we got it right.

I say to you go for it, but put the appropriate decals on. **Q: Hi I like the Helmet but not sure if appropiated and secure to ride my Motorcycle** A: Definitely not as it does not have any of the protection that a motorcycle helmet has ( I own 3 DOT approved motorcycle helmets and 1 WW2 German helmet). I'm a Harley rider and the best thing to do is to wear a real motorcycle helmet to protect your head. I do wear my WW2 helmet and gogles only when I'm riding slow (under 30 MPH). If I'm going to be riding at higher speeds I wear a real motorcycle helmet. **Q: Will this helmet fit a size 7 or 56 cm?** A: It will most likely be relatively loose on that size. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect replica of the real thing!! *by M***N on February 21, 2026* My husband absolutely loves this helmet!

Has the darth Vader look ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Cheap price, but high quality. *by J***N on April 27, 2025* Great quality reproduction, the paint is definitely scratch resistant from the cover I put on it (hooks are plastic but scratch the paint off another company helmet I have). Also, I have a cover on it that's designed for M35, M40, and M42. When I first put it on, it felt like the cover was too small because it's a very tight fit, especially since the M42 flanges out more at the bottom than previous helmet designs. It just means the cover will fit better and not move around. ## Frequently Bought Together - German WWII M42 Steel Helmet- Stahlhelm 42 WW2 M1942 - ANQIAOGreen Collectibles WWII WW2 German M31 Mess Kit Tin with Leather Strap Dinner Box 3 Parts in 1 - Epic Militaria Replica WW2 German M43 Field Grey Wool Tunic --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/9216100-german-wwii-m42-steel-helmet-stahlhelm-42-ww2-m1942](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/9216100-german-wwii-m42-steel-helmet-stahlhelm-42-ww2-m1942) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-09-13*
