Nice picture! Did you buy that helm or make it? And is that padding inside it attached, or do you have a separate coif or cowl?

I had it made "to fit".I know a little metalwork, but this had to be just as I had envisioned it, so I left it to a pro. ;)
There's linen and cotton padding attached inside, but for extra comfort ànd protection I also wear a seperate padded coif under it. :)

Do you also have a suit to go with it?

Yes, chainmail armour-no plates.I also have a slight preference towards my round shield, I tried kite shields too, but they're too large for on-foot combat imho.
