Pickelhaubes or the leather helmets with metal spike on top were the normal head gear for the German Army. The firstPickelhaubes were first worn in the 1840's.

During WW1 it was worn through out the army for both parade dress and field use. There was a cloth cover that was worn over the helmet in the field to provide some protection to the leather. The Model 1915 had a detachable spike so that enemy troops would not locate the position of the wearer while in the trenches. The medical staff of the German army forced the recommended disbanding the Pickelhaube due to fatalies cause by head wounds. The Model 1916 steel helmet was introduced which became the new standard for the German Army up through WW2. Artillery units wore a pickelhaube that had a ball on top.
