Product description

Cuirasses like this one originated during the late Gothic period (1440–1500). The Gothic style was characterized by sharp, highly decorated shapes. This type of cuirass followed Burgundian fashion, ending around the thighs—just like the fashionable doublet of the time. They were often worn with chainmail voiders, an aventail (standard or bishop's mantle), and a chainmail skirt (gousset). The arms and legs were fully armored, and pointed sabatons completed the look, imitating the shape of poulaines from contemporary clothing fashion.

Pair this cuirass with a sallet and bevor for a classic Gothic look—the kettle hat was also a popular choice. An integrated plackart reinforces the lower section of the armor and creates the characteristic central ridge. Faulds (articulated plates) at the front and culets (articulated plates at the lower back) add extra mobility, improving leg movement and making this cuirass especially useful when riding a horse.

Made from 1.2 mm thick steel, this cuirass is not suitable for full-contact reenactment battles. You can wear it as part of a costume, for LARP combat, or display it as a decorative piece. Multiple articulated plates make it highly flexible and comfortable to wear. Adjust the fit using the leather straps.
