These are sold in lots of 6 tie strings.
It’s been a tiresome day of training, and you’ve been trapped inside your completely sweat soaked gambeson for the better part of eight hours. The last thing you need as you finally settle onto your cot is to mess with stubborn ties!
Thankfully your Dark Blue Tie Strings with Points make the lacing process simple, and you untie each individual tie with a quick pull. Within a minute your cloth armour hits the floor, and you can properly collapse onto your pillow. Phew!
Epic Armoury’s Dark Blue Tie Strings with Points is a set of six cloth aiguillette cords designed to easily thread through eyelets on your cloth costume. Each end is securely fastened to a brass tip that makes lacing a breeze, keeps the cloth from unraveling, prolongs the string’s lifetime use, and gives your costume a polished look. There are five available tie string colours, so feel free to match or contrast your strings with your costume! For example, use this Dark Blue version to replace the strings on your Tristan Vest, or change up the look on your Imperial Gambeson by adding a different colour to the seams. It’s a great way to make your costume a little more unique.
Available in colours Off-White, Epic Black, Dark Red, Dryad Green, and Dark Blue.
HISTORY
- This type of tie is considered an aiguillette, aiglet, or point due to its metal tip
- Points were used for practical and decorative reasons since the 16th century
- These ties would have been used to hold up armour and close seams along sleeves and jackets
You are darkness, you are the night. You are the shadow that slides across the land, making men clutch their swords tighter when the sun has faded.
You are also a practical person. The night’s cold breeze is a familiar aspect of your dark work, but you like your warmth and protection. And for that, these Gambeson Legs are perfect beneath your greaves.
DETAILS
Epic Armoury’s Gambeson Legs are a set of quilted cotton greaves designed to add comfort and protection beneath your leg armour. Made from quilted cotton canvas lined with a soft polyester interior and a medium cotton outer layer, they can be worn on their own or as padding beneath heavy steel or leather armour.
The Gambeson Legs are stitched to ensure the padding will remain evenly spaced. Secure them to your legs by tightening the cotton string lacing through brass eyelets up the calf. Quilted armours were common through many cultures and used across a broad expanse of time. With their neutral style, the Gambeson Legs will work on a wide variety of characters.
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
Don't forget when you finally catch that thief to lock him up good!
... If only we sold stocks, too *whistful sigh*
The streets are dangerous, overrun with criminals and ruffians. The only thing protecting the merchants and civilians is the Watch. You are a member of the Watch, and it is your duty to guard the regular citizens of your city.
At night you patrol the streets, your sword and a pair of Handcuffs ready. You protect the people who are not rich enough to hire their own bodyguards--it is your life’s calling to help.
DETAILS
Epic Armoury’s Handcuffs are a set of simple looking irons for locking the wrists together. Each solid metal cuff is made from darkened mild steel, connected by a strong metal chain that can be attached to the belt using a hook. A metal crossbar is used to lock each cuff shut.
To lock the cuffs, each bar is fitted with a simple lock. When adjusted, the lock allows the crossbars to move up or down the cuff in order to release or trap hands. These Handcuffs are a perfect detail or prop to add to a guard costume.
HISTORY
- The term handcuffs is derived from the Anglo-Saxon word, handcop (that which catches the hands)
- Reference to handcuffs have appeared as early as 4th century B.C.
Want that extra level of immersion?
Have thieves but no locks that are pickable thanks to modern locks actually being really well designed?
Nuts to the 20th century. Tumblers too. Here's an old school lock for you!
You hold your knife between your teeth, keeping it accessible while your hands are busy picking a noble’s unguarded luggage. Leaving anything valuable without a guard is like an invitation to steal it...at least that’s been your experience.
With a satisfying ‘click!’ the Metal Lock comes undone and you pry the chest open to reveal--oh, yes! That will do nicely. You pocket what looks to be a sizeable purse and a few interesting looking weapons, before carefully replacing the lock and sneaking out of the tent undetected.
DETAILS
Epic Armoury’s Lock Chest is a working, simple lock designed to secure a chest full of loot. Made from darkened mild steel, the lock consists of a solid metal arch set through a steel bar.
To use the Lock Chest, open or close it using a universal Allan-key in the lock located inside the steel crossbar. The lock is practical and simple in style and can match a variety of genres or settings. It is sized to fit anywhere a normal padlock is used.
HISTORY
- Locks have been used for at least 6 thousand years, with early versions made of wood
- The Greeks and Romans introduced iron locks during the 1st millennia B.C.
Good for picking ye olde locks.
Available in two stylish colours, you rogue!

Sometimes the end will come off one of your tie strings. Sometimes you just want to turn cheap shoe laces into something that looks suitable to go with your LARP gear. But you need the little metal dealy thing that goes on there. Like the plastic shoelacey endy tube.
The word for that is "aglet".
Here is a bag of 10 of them.
