1960 Dallas Texans Riddell Kra-Lite RK2 Suspension Football Helmet

1960 Dallas Texans Riddell Classic Kra-Lite RK2 Football Helmet-

1960 was the first year the upstart AFL would challenge the established NFL, and one of the places the AFL chose to go head to head was in Dallas where the Texans would field solid and competitive teams. After a couple of years the team would move to Kansas City and become the Chiefs.

1960 Dallas Texans Riddell Classic Kra-Lite RK2 helmet, decaled with the iconic Texas shaped decals with the gold star marking the location of Dallas, as the Texans wore in 1960.

This helmet also sports leather jaw pads, and a single bar facemask with a U-bar added for protection of the player’s nose. Here you have a truly rare collectible. Don’t miss this one!

A classic step back in time! The classic shape of the Riddell RK's slightly flared shell and handsome metal rivets are complemented by the attachment of an original Riddell two bar facemask. These helmets are recently manufactured Riddell Pro-Line Authentic On Field helmets! The adult size 7 3/8 suspension webbing is identical to the original right down to the same brown thread that was used to stitch it together. Thin mil decals exactly as the originals, real leather jaw pads, gray toned strap and identical front style labeling makes this helmet indistinguishable from the original. They are painted gray inside just as the Riddell vintage originals from the 1960's, and also have the "KRA-LITE" and "RIDDell" trademarks branded into the rear of the helmet, unlike some other helmets you may find on the market these days which have neither. Do not settle for a substitute. Demand the real thing!
