German WWII Helmet Net- M35, M38, M40 & M42 (Net Only)
This strap circles the helmet and clips underneath the side skirts with metal hooks. A small leather loop secures a metal clip to the back of the strap. This clip was used to hang the helmet from the soldier's backpack or belt to alleviate the stress on the chinstrap, which was commonly used and would typically break. According to unconfirmed internet research this type of carrying system was designed by Josef Welte in 1937.
Strap only, helmet sold separately.
