Reproduction Japanese Helmet Covers
I was reading old threads on Japanese helmet covers and there was at least one mention of repro helmet covers being made out of Japanese Army uniforms/rain coats. The reply to the thread seemed to indicate these reproductions are difficult to spot from the outside/on a helmet. I have tried to find an example, but I have been unable to locate one on the internet. So I wanted to ask if anyone had any photos of one of these reproductions and/or what are the tells of these. Thanks ABN

The ones you refer to about being made from raincoats etc will often show stitching holes in lines on the outside of the cover in random places, indicating that stitching has been removed from the item the cover was made from.
