Original U.S. M1 Helmet Leather Chinstraps – Post-War (c. early 1960s)
These are original U.S. M1 helmet leather chinstraps from the early 1960s, just before the military phased leather chinstraps out completely. They feature the correct dark russet leather with black metal cam buckle and black triangle ends. All examples are used originals in good, serviceable condition, with natural wear from age and storage. Each strap has been hand-checked to ensure it is still strong and suitable for installation on a liner. These are best suited for helmets that show honest use — not a mint display piece, and not a completely beat battle relic either. Sold individually, and quantities are limited.
