Introducing our exquisite 14th Century Leg Armour, meticulously crafted from 1.6mm polished steel. This leg armour represents a significant evolution in medieval protective gear, originating around 1350 and widely adopted throughout Europe. The design is believed to have emerged from the renowned Milanese forges, marking a pivotal shift from traditional dichling styles to the more advanced floating knee tiles that became popular during this era.
One of the standout features of this leg armour is its open-back design, which allows for exceptional freedom of movement. This is particularly important for historical reenactors, LARP enthusiasts, and medieval combat practitioners who require both protection and agility. The armour is secured with several leather straps, ensuring a natural and universal fit that accommodates various body types.
Our leg armour is not only functional but also showcases absolutely clean processing and handwork. Each piece is crafted with attention to detail, ensuring that it meets the highest standards of quality. The beaded edges provide an additional layer of security, preventing any sharp edges from causing discomfort or injury during wear.
The flanging of the armour is 3-4 mm thick, which guarantees absolute security for both wearers and players. This thickness is crucial for ensuring that the armour can withstand the rigors of combat or reenactment scenarios, providing peace of mind to the wearer.
The fastening straps are made from genuine, tear-resistant leather, measuring 2-3 mm in thickness. This choice of material not only enhances the durability of the armour but also ensures that it remains comfortable during extended wear. Additionally, the inside of the armour is coated with anti-rust paint, protecting it from moisture and ensuring longevity.
Constructed from durable structural steel with a material thickness of 1.3-1.6 mm, this leg armour is fully battle-ready. The steel used contains 0.1% carbon, which contributes to its strength and resilience. Whether you are participating in a reenactment, a theatrical production, or simply looking to add to your collection of medieval armour, this leg armour is designed to meet your needs.
The total length of the leg armour is approximately 51 cm, making it suitable for a wide range of users. Its design not only provides protection but also enhances the overall aesthetic of any medieval outfit. The polished finish adds a touch of elegance, making it a standout piece in any collection.
In summary, our 14th Century Leg Armour is an essential addition for anyone interested in historical reenactment, LARPing, or medieval combat. With its combination of authentic design, quality craftsmanship, and durable materials, this leg armour is sure to impress both in functionality and appearance.
