Product description
These leg pieces have been crafted after various historical originals. They are depicted on the tombs of Günther von Schwarzburg (1349) and Sir Thomas Cheyne (1375), and may be worn by both late 14th-century aristocracy and commoners. Leather armour combined with steel plates was a relatively straightforward means of producing armour components, and was often worn over chainmail. From the 15th century onwards, this method gradually fell out of use. The leg armour is constructed from 1.4 mm thick steel and suede leather, and is equipped with leather straps to secure it around the leg. Optionally, holes may be made at the top to attach them to a belt around the waist. As the leg armour is crafted from leather, it can be easily adjusted for a better fit.Product details
