The inside of the gloves is gusseted and lined with soft, sewn-in suede leather gloves. Strengthened with stylish brass fittings on the knuckles, wrist and bottom.

This armour is 1 mm thick and well-suited to LARP battles, costumes and cosplay.

Tip: how to adjust the owner's finish and weapons
Luxury (polished) – Polish the steel with a metal polishing agent or toothpaste. With this method, one can achieve an even polish on an article. Always test on a small surface first!
Handmade (matt) – Place the steel for 40 minutes to 20 hours in cola. Check the matt finish regularly. Equalise the finish with black sandpaper.
Antique (patinated) – Place the steel for a whilst in a damp environment (preferably outdoors) and allow it to rust. Brush the red rust layer away; the corroded top layer remains.

NB. Once the product has been finished yourself, the guarantee and right of return are void. Celtic Webmerchant is not liable for the results of the aforementioned methods.
