woseley pith helmet (2013-12-16)
Ultra fast shipping, High quality repro!!!

Calvo - ES
Wolseley helmet (2013-03-07)
The shape, colour and construction is superb, very authentic.

I would say this is the best reproduction available today.

The lining is put on backwards with the stitching in front, but easily fixed. The helmet body is made with thick styrofoam instead of real pith, but it is still very light and very strong. Can't really expect real pith to be used these days with the environmentally friendly minds.

All in all a great reproduction that will last for years to come.

Superb (2012-10-29)
Superb reproduction. Sizing spot on. Shape and colour fantastic. Puggaree could be better for early impressions i.e. bigger otherwise it's only a minor thing. What a shame Jerry isn't making any more after this batch run out.

If only he made the earlier shape to the same standard.

A thing of beauty (2012-10-24)
Quite possibly one of the best repros I''ve seen in a long time. Sizing spot on, colur and shape superb. Pugree needs to be wider for early impressions but other than that it''s a thing of beauty. What a shame Jerry isn''t restocking after these sell out.

Second Wolseley from WPG (2012-09-10)
My second Wolseley Helmet reproduction arrived at my place in Spain only 5 days after it was ordered. This time it shipped from UAE (My first one shipped from the US). Shipping was thus really quick. Packaging was slightly better from the US, but it was ok. Now on this second helmet,finishings are not as good as on the first. On most WPG Wolseley repros, the Sweatband or liner is back to front. No big deal. But on this one, the leather sweatband is made of two pieces stiched together and not one... On the outside, stichings of the different panels of cotton drill (seams) were not straight. Otherwise size was OK. All in all, I am very satisfied with my first order, a bit less with this purchase.

Nice product, good delivery (2012-06-20)
Just got my repro Wolseley helmet from WPG! It arrived at my place, in Madrid, Spain just a week after placing the order.Very well packaged. I am satisfied with the overall quality of the pith helmet and the price. Just need to fix the headband, which as other buyers have pointed out is back to front.

UK Pith Helmet (2011-12-13)
Outstanding Helmet! Probibly the best on the market! Great Khaki Color and Great Shape! Very Nice lining, However the lining was put in backwards with the leather stiching in the front. I have been told that it is possible to re-position it, however I am not sure yet how. My head size is 57, ordered a 7 1/4. The helmet lining is marked 58. The helmet fits Great!

Really a first class replica (2011-08-08)
Greatly made Wolseley helmet.

Broos - NL
Wolseley Pattern pith helmet (2011-08-07)
This is a first class reproduction which compares very well to the originals in my collection.The liner fits well(although was back to front-easily adjusted by removing the split pins and turning round,so seam is at the back)The liner(leather sweatband with adjustable red satin crown)is accurate and matches two in my collection.Others have no satin crown so the adjusting string is threaded through the leather sweatband itself.As for the pugaree this seems spot on;war time issue O.R.Wolseleys had,it seems, narrow, three band pugs compared with pre- war nine band pugarees.
My Father in Law was also impressed-He wore the real thing while serving in the Far East!
All the products I have bought from you have been excellent and despatch quick and efficient.Keep up the good work!

Great (2011-07-18)
Loads better than my previous, a Vietnam repro from I-M-A-U-S-A.

Liner fits great, seems to match photos of Wolseleys I've seen online. 5.5

Pith Helmets (2011-05-09)
great colour (spot on khaki-brown, NICE!) great quality and feel! sizing is a bit variable- 4 hats 4 different real sizes all marked "58", but luckily the 4 of us have 4 different heads so it all worked out perfectly! Overall though great product especially at this price!

Best one I''ve seen (2010-04-03)
I can''t speak to the authenticity, as I''ve never owned a period pith helmet. But the quality of this product is the best I''ve seen and I''ve bought a few pith helmets. Great job!

Pith helmet. (2010-01-31)
I own an original pith of this style, and this is a pretty good reproduction of it. I've bought other attempts at this design, and all were disappointments. This one was not perfect, but darn close. The outside of the helmet is hard to tell if it was not an original, other than the fact that the pugaree is much bigger on the original. Although the interior is far superior to all others I've seen, it's not like the original. I'm a 7 1/2 long oval head size, and it's too tight. I've taken the sweatband out, and will make adjustments to make it work. It is attached by four metal rivets with bendable tabs that are easy to remove. I will make this helmet work, as it is truly a handsome addition to my collection. The Vietnam versions are to heavy, and are nowhere near as accurate as this one. I would buy one again.

Wolseley Helmet (2009-10-15)
Good solid repro- not like other cheap Asian copies. Full leather sweatband, solid pith construction, chinststrap of quality leather, with a bit of wear and some light soiling, these will look original!

Sizing- I normally take a 71/4, ordered a 7 1/2 and it fits well with a bit of room.

All up, best I''ve seen.

Best Pith Helmet Around (2008-12-13)
I''ve collected a few pith helmets, from cheap costume ones to the nicer ones from Vietnam. This is hands down the best I''ve seen. Instead of the standard ''one size fits all'' velcro headband this one is actually sized and set into the helmet with rubber standoffs. I''ve only seen that in original German and Italian helmets (read big $$''s). Inside is fully lined with satin, chin strap is actual leather, not plastic. For the price the quality is outstanding. Size tip, keep in mind the headband is totally FIXED. No stretching or forming like a felt hat. I take a 7 1/4 hat, maybe a 7 3/8 if it runs small. 7 1/2 fit just right. May want to order one size up.

Wolseley Helmet (2008-02-25)
A very good reproduction of the Other Ranks 1938 Pattern Helmet. Externally identical to a sealed pattern item although you may have to rearrange the pugaree to make it wider. If you want to portray an earlier helmet you''ll need to find a bigger pugaree.
