Product description
Laces such as these were employed throughout the Middle Ages, in particular the Late Middle Ages and the Renaissance, for a wide variety of purposes. With these laces it was possible to attach plate armour parts or chainmail to the gambeson or acketon. With such strong laces, the plate armour remained firmly in place during a battle.
Such laces were also utilised for clothing and shoes. They could be employed, for example, to attach chausses to braies. Laces were also useful for women's clothing, for example when fastening pieces of clothing.
The ends of the laces, the aiglets, are crafted from brass. These are exact replicas of medieval originals. The laces are delivered in a set of 6 pieces.
