Description

Lamellar Torso:

This lamellar torso armor is constructed from hundreds of plates of 20 gauge steel tied into form with thick leather cordage. The armor is bordered in thick suede leather. The shoulder is padded with leather on the inside to cushion the shoulder from the weight of the armor.

The armor is fastened and fitted to the body with leather cords on its side.

Lamellar Tassets:

These lamellar tassets are an easy way to upgrade your armored lamellar defense; They are constructed from many 20 gauge steel plates which are secured and laced into position with thick leather cord and edged within a frame of thick suede leather. Integrated belt loops allow them to be attached to your own belt for wear.

Lamellar Pauldrons:

This set of Lamellar Pauldrons are an add-on upgrade which can be used to add upper arm protection to the Lamellar Torso Armor. They are crafted from 20 gauge steel and constructed with thick leather lacing and robust leather framing.

A series of tabs and leather laces allow for the pauldrons to be laced onto the middle tab of the shoulder armour. The leather laces at the bottom of the pauldron can be used to tie around the arm to ensure it moves in sync with the arm. You may need to single up a cord to get enough length for this purpose – a simple knot at the end of a leather cord can be used as a stopper to prevent it from pulling through a round slot. You may find that you have extra laces that are not needed to install these shoulder armor pieces onto your torso armor. The torso armor has two additional tabs in the armpit area which can link up with the pauldron armor. You may or may not find these useful and may need to experiment to create the optimal set up for you and your needs when adding this additional armor.

Please Note: This armor is photographed with it attached to lamellar torso armor. This is done for demonstration purposes only. The torso armor is sold separately. The last few photos show the pauldrons on their own and is illustrative of what is included.

Please Note: It is common for this item to have dried brown oil on the edges of the armor. It is typical for the leather edging of this item to have a substantial amount of oil on and within the leather. The many overlapping plates require this oiling to prevent rust. Please be aware that light colored clothing and padded armor will likely be easily stained from wearing this type of armor. This can be cleaned up with a wire brush or scuff pads with moderate effort. Care must be taken not to damage the leather cords during this process with an overly vigorous or hasty cleaning. Also, please be aware that this item comes with a notable amount of packing oil on and within it. This is done intentionally to prevent excessive rusting between the many segmented metal components of this armor during shipping and transition.

It is common for this armor to have some dried, brown oil and some light rust on the plates – they can be removed with a light abrasive.
