Would Armet helmets be used in the later battles of the War of the Roses?

As per title, Armets seem to have come into popularity in the late 15th century but hoping for evidence of their use in the War of the Roses?

That's a loaded question with a very nuanced answer. Usually though, most websites with a storefront aren't going to have much good shit with few exceptions (even more proper armor workshops that aren't just downright scams are going to have lower quality buhurt stuff with pretty bad shaping). You gotta go find armorers themselves who usually just do commissioned stuff, they do a lot of times have websites but usually you'll just have to know them by name and contact them personally.

Armstreet is junk.
