3/4 & Full Legs

Late 13th Century 3/4 Legs

Crafted after historically correct late 13th century design!

 13th century armour medieval leg armour Armour crafted in historically correct 13th Century styling. We based the design of these legs on late 13th century effigies and use a traditional cuirbouille hardening method that very few armourers employ today. Poleyns and Rondels are hardened in a several step process that requires patience, precision, and care. The end result is a beautiful waterproof hardness that is the toughest barrier you can get with leather armour.

Studded/Faux Splinted 3/4 Legs with Steel Knees

Studded leggings Was there historically any evidence of studded armour? No, however there is no physical evidence of many types of armour due to the organic nature of leather. Many times we must look at an effigy, a historic representation of a person, usually as a sculpture), and based on timeline, location and available materials used for armoring form a hypothesis of what the armour is composed of.

Therefore rather than refer to these as specifically studded 3/4 legs, we add the presupposition that there MAY have existed a form of leggings which were meant to LOOK like splinted armour.You decide what to call them. We just call them cool as hell.

Crafted from 13/15 oz armour grade leather with alternating 10mm and 12mm studs and 16 gauge mild steel knees..

Greek "Hoplite" Greaves  

hoplite greaveshoplite greaves

Fans of Greek and Roman style armour will appreciate our reproduction of the very popular and highly functional greaves which were thought to have been originally formed by gluing several layers of linen together. Inasmuch as Greeks did have cows around, for food, sacrifice, etc., it is much more likely that they formed their "hoplite" greaves from...yes, leather. Bronze was also used for this purpose, but was harder to fashion, more expensive, and much more tiring to move in for any length of time. Available in black, brown, tan (shown), dark green and dark red. Please provide kneecap to ankle measurement.
