Default The wearable sizes.......

....are really hard to find......... anything 7 1/4 and up is holy grail.....

Be careful with What price glory..... I got one of their liners and the black plastic crown strap the forms the cross for the cross rubber and screw was made of very hard plastic and actually broke before I could install it......... they may be using a different supplier as there are a number of web sites now selling them...some directly from China..... speaking of which the Chinese are now making the Tommy helmets out of plastic and listing them from 9.99 US $ including liner and strap up to $50. US$ if remailed from the Continental USA......

some dirty original liners will cleanup nicely with plain dish soap and water....some are too dried up to salvage.......BUT can be used as headlight covers on LRDG trucks.

Cheers
