"It wasn't the reward that mattered or the recognition you might harvest. It was your depth of commitment, your quality of service, the product of your devotion -- these were the things that counted in a life. When you gave purely, the honor came in the giving, and that was honor enough."

How well do you think the Armstreet helms will size down slightly? I think I last measured around 22.5". I'm assuming if it's sized to 23" it's probably OK.

My head is also 22.5 and the padding sits snug on my head.

Yes, that thing is a tank, and a pretty tank at that.  That's why I want to sell it, it's far too nice to sit in an attic not being used.

It's not nearly as bad as it seems.  The pattern I used made it very simple to do, even with a very complex garment like the one I did.

**I made a mistake on the sizing of the Norman Conical** 

I ripped the padding out and it's marked by Windrose as a small, not a medium.  I measure the internal circumference at the brow as 27'' with NO padding.  So however that translates to a head size once padding is added is what you'd be working with.
