• More commonly a male fashion item, with the exception of the Middle Ages

You’ve tried so many types of armour, but none ever seemed to work for you. Your torso was too big or too small; or you couldn’t bend or there wasn’t enough protection. That is until the blacksmith finally made you the Scouts Torso Armour.

This armour is perfect. It still offers solid metal protection to your heart and spine, and you are able to bend and stoop while scouting--an important element when attempting to hide from enemies. You only wish you’d found it sooner!

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Scouts Torso Armour is a simple low-fantasy breastplate and backplate protecting the upper torso. The plates comes down to the waist, allowing for increased flexibility compared to a traditional breastplate. Both the front and back plates are made from 1 mm thick mild steel, and are secured with top-grain leather straps at the shoulders and around the ribs.

Sculpted to fit the body and add structural strength to the steel, this steel riveted piece has been polished to a high-gloss finish to appeal to the knights in shining armour. The Scouts Torso Armour is neutral in style. Wear it alone or with shoulderguards and a helmet of your choice--we definitely recommend a gambeson! We also offer this style in several sizes to help accommodate different body types, and it’s built to withstand the abuse of a LARP or reenactment with regular leather and metal armour care.

HISTORY

• Historically designed with a rounded shape to disperse the force of attacks on a chaotic battlefield
• Plate armour became more popular as firearm technology became more prevalent during the 13th century

"What in the dickens are you wearing there, Richard, dear boy?"

"Pants. Armoured pants, Francis. To prevent the peasants from reaching up and stealing my braies as I ride past!"

"I dare say you've thought this through entirely, old bean, but should you not be wearing braies in the first place? And perhaps some trousers tween the two?"

The chain mail chaps "Richard" are made of spring steel, in the classic "4 in 1" braid. They are attached to a belt with wide loops and worn over the garment. This highly flexible armor hardly limits when running or fighting. Chain mail chaps are a comfortable and very effective addition to any heavy armament concept. We recommend to fix the chaps with a leather strap in the knee lightly. So the armor does not slip and the weight is distributed more evenly.

The "Garen" suede vest is suitable for various costume ideas. Beneath the shoulder cuffs there are several eyelets that can be used to attach either the long or the short sleeves. The vest is closed by four decorative buckle straps in the front. A really pretty garment at a great price-performance ratio.

“He casually counted the money in the pouch, placed it in his pocket, pulled the finger from the other pocket and threw it on the sand before us. We all recognised the finger. The henchman had been brutally successful in his endeavour, and we covered in hopes that the gods would forgive our deeds. The huge man turned away and mentioned that we would eventually end up in his pockets. Then he laughed out loud. We did not.”

Epic Armoury’s Ari Pants combines the classic design with the baggy legs of Pants Medieval with the herringbone-patterned cotton also used in the Viking-inspired Shirt Arvid and Pants Arvid. The pants are fitted with a cotton drawstring by the waist, top pockets, extra width above the knees and attached strings by the shins to allow a tight fit. A versatile design that will fit many different characters!

IN THE WOODLAND REALM

Is your elven character a majestic, noble member of the High Elven court leading an urbane lifestyle? Or is it a balanced ranger mastering the bow, living a naturalistic life in the forest?

Deadly Elegance

Although you are skilled in close quarters fighting and Martial Arts, your elven heritage still shines thrown in your sense of fashion. While some races would see it as opulent and somewhat needlessly complex, you see intricate patterns and history woven into the very fabric that you wear, a declaration of your deferrence to the past. Made from brown leather with sharp edges, that are more prominent with Dark elven design and an ornate fully cast brass buckle, the belt is fastened by using unique loops, that you hook the fully cast brass buckle onto, creating a double loop of the belt before using the lock mechanism of the buckle to fasten the belt . This belt is a graceful yet strong high-fantasy statement; an absolute essential when crafting your LARP kit! Available in three different sizes.
