Undercap

Oh no, you think, as a sword and a helmet are thrust into your farm-calloused hands. You’ve never been trained as a soldier, let alone asked to fight on a dangerous battlefield!

But here you are, suddenly standing in a row of your neighbors with your helmet secured over a padded Undercap. You await the advancing orc raid headed for your farms and your town, and you just hope that somehow you’ll make it through. At least your helmet feels solid on your head. That’s something to be thankful for, at least...right?

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Undercap is a padded hood that fits over the head and ears comfortably. Made from quilted cotton canvas lined with a soft polyester interior and a medium cotton outer layer, this padding can be worn on its own or as padding beneath a heavy steel or leather helmet.

The Undercap is stitched to ensure the padding will remain evenly spaced. Secure it to your head by tying the cotton cords under the chin. With its neutral style, the Undercap will work on a wide variety of characters. Match it with other Epic Armoury armours and clothes to fit your unique style!

HISTORY

• Used as padding under chainmail or plate armour
• Historically, a high-medieval European gambeson was recorded as being capable of stopping sword blows from penetrating the skin
• Could stop heavy arrows and mace and axe impacts with the addition of overlaying chainmail

The Ringmesh #210 Head Cover, or Coif, is designed to protect the neck and head while also providing a light weight chain mail material that doesn't put pressure on the neck.

It is light weight and durable making it the perfect addition to any chain mail collection.

This gambeson is very thick and durable. It is perfect for heavy armour or just for dressing your character.

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 one sweep of your weapon. 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 strap your armour over your Warrior Gambeson, preparing for battle. You will never tell them which stories might be true, but they can see for themselves your battle prowess once you step onto the field and dominate once more.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Warrior Gambeson is a padded long-sleeve coat covering the torso from neck, down over the hips on front and back. It can be worn on its own or serve as essential padding under mail or armour. The gambeson is donned like a jacket and closed on the front with five leather straps and brass buckles, allowing the wearer to customize the tightness of the fit. The arms are easily detachable by untying its cotton cords on the shoulders and sleeves, each cord secured through long-lasting brass eyelets.

Thick enough to serve as its own armour, this sturdy gambeson is constructed with heavy layers of fluffed polyester sandwiched between layers of heavy cotton twill. All these layers are stitched together in vertical lines, keeping the padding in place and mimicking a classic European high-medieval style.

Though of European cut, gambeson or quilted-style armours have seen world-wide use since antediluvian times, making the Warrior Gambeson a great basic armour with a range of possibilities regardless of time and place.

HISTORY

• Quilted armours have been around since at least 400 BCE
• Used as padding under chainmail or plate armour
• Historically, a high-medieval European gambeson was recorded as being capable of stopping sword blows from penetrating the skin
• Could stop heavy arrows and mace and axe impacts with the addition of overlaying chainmail
• Specific style often worn by freemen, mercenaries, and other independent warriors

A simple cap to keep a child's hair from getting caught between the pickaxe and the mine's wall

It’s your birthday in one week, and you still have so much to bake! This is your biggest birthday yet, and you’ve invited the entire village to join you in celebration. It’s caused you not to leave your kitchen in days, preparing the feast that the party will expect.

You push your stylish Samy Hat away from your face as you mix another batch of batter and prepare yet another cake. Just six more cakes to go, and you may consider yourself half way done. Phew...halflings sure do eat their weight in dessert!

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Epic Black Hat Samy is a cap inspired by the popular Venetian style of the 14th- to 15th-centuries--and is a little reminiscent of a proper halfling cook, too! It fits over the top of the head comfortably and is made from black cotton, gathered beneath the folded brim to give it volume. This cap is designed to sit around the top of the forehead, and is specifically for children.

The Hat Samy is a great addition to your child’s costume. It does not need to be secured to the head, but easily sits on its own over the scalp and hair. Match it with the Epic Armoury Samy collection for a full halfling (or neutral medieval) look.

HISTORY

• This style cap was the headwear of choice for men at the end of the Middle Ages
• The historical style had flaps that folded down over the ears and back of the head, but were often worn folded up like in this design
