Both have the same type fake eagle .., which is the most important part of a luftwaffe pith helmet ..

Nice tropenhelms, but as Jos pointed out, both have fake eagles on them which are hard to find and expensive when you do.

Yup, they'll not survive in hot areas ..
So, bad choice to put them on a tropical helmet ..

These eagles are all over the planet , even big name dealers use them to up-grade their pith helmets, sad thing is that they know, but they don't mention and ask the premium.


15 euro eagles, when they first came out.
Saw a new run lately, now with open space in the swas.
They keep trying.

Yes sad they are used to replace missing birds and sold as original. Remember the photos of a box fulll of them, good to know they have upgraded them
