Leopold Padded Coif

The padded coif is, just like the gugel, a classic medieval piece of clothing.
A padded coif provides a better wearing comfort and allows you to wear maille-coifs and helmets for a longer time.
The cotton variation looks very becoming and can be worn in combination with hats as well.

he Gambeson "Leopold" is classic cut and generously upholstered. This makes it excellent for the combination with a chain mail. It has short sleeves and is slotted on the back. Thus, it barely limits the mobility of its wearer and still effectively protects against abrasive armour and bruises in combat. The simple cut Gambeson is closed, with five straps and roll buckles on the front side. " Leopold "is an ideal basis for all armament concepts and very well to wear as an independent garment.

There are stories being told about you amongst the soldiers. You are the mercenary who has slain over a thousand men. You put fear in your enemies with just a glance of your unique Visored Barbuta. Your aura of darkness freezes the hearts of anyone who looks you in the eye. And your favorite? Someone is saying you made a deal with a devil so that you may never die.

You will never tell them which might be true. Instead, as you sit just beyond the campfire and clean the blood from your Visored Barbuta, you simply listen...and smirk.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Visored Barbuta is a gracefully curved full-helmet with a distinctive visor. The visor is movable and can be flipped up over the helmet. Whether up or down, the visor can be locked in place with a pin-and-chain. The visor has two rectangular eye-slits, flat nose and a large Maltese-Cross breathing-hole. Wrought to follow the shape of the head and reinforced with a low crest from forehead to neck, the helmet is elegant while still being comfortable to wear.

The helmet gives full protection to head except at the throat. The Barbuta was used mainly by the flamboyant Italian mercenaries of the renaissance and was favoured with light troops for the mix of protection and excellent visibility. Made to wear with renaissance style clothes, it has a high-fantasy feel that will fit with a lot of characters.

HISTORY

• More accurately resembles a German “sallet” due to the visor
• A “barbuta” was a 15th century Italian design considered to be a specialized form of “sallet” without a visor
• Historical design also influenced Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, and Marvel Comics X-Men costumes
