The Zischagge is my favorite one
I still don't know whether it's from the Ottoman Empire, Russia, Poland or some germanic countries. It seems to have appeared simultaneously in different places, but I can't help seeing an oriental influence into it. Especially the Russian and Turkish ones, those ones are completely oriental. Maybe they have a common ancestor as the turban helmet ?

Here is the oldest example that I know of an adjustable nasal, comforting my hypothesis that these helmets have an oriental origin.

>>2686688
Pardon me ? Are you asking if there should be padding under the helmet ? I don't know, it's from a movie.

>>2686700
Yeah I am wondering if the helmet had a coif in the real world. Any ideas?

The Russian and the Polish style looks very similar to Turkish ones, I guess its adopted from near east and slowly adopted and diversified from there

I have never seen this helmet wore upon a coif in any contemporary representation. I think well-made Zischagge (or lobster-tailed helmets as they are called in English) have their own lining, exempting the use of padding.

>>2686729
Yes, that's what I thought. We can see a similar pattern in weapons, with "russian" sabers looking exactly like polish and turkish ones. The Russians didn't exactly had the time, the motive and the resources to innovate at the time.

>>2686740
To absorb impacts, I guess.

It's already in the bloody name.

It's from the Ottoman Empire considering Zischagge is the German translation of the Ottoman "Chichak."

The helmet itself, in turn, descended form other Turkic/Central Asian helmets.
