FUNCTIONAL CUIRASS AB0015 BY GDFB By the end of the Middle Ages, armor had reached its peak. It was not uncommon to see foot soldiers that were as heavily protected as knights and nobles. This armor is quite distinctive in its look, possessing the same level of protection that a foot soldier's cuirass might have offered in its day, yet beautiful enough to be worn or proudly displayed today. This late-15th century-style cuirass is fabricated in 16ga steel. The breastplate (with an integral fauld) and backplate are joined by adjustable leather straps to fit a range of torso sizes. Fully functional and wearable the breastplate and backplate both measure 24" across.		• 16 Gauge Steel • Width: 24" • Leather Straps • Weight: approx 17 lbs • Backplate Included

HISTORIC SUITS OF ARMOUR During the 13th - 15th centuries, Royalty and the Highest Military Class, the Knight wore Medieval Suits of Armour. Made by hammering and heating the Steel, the Knight's Armour and Sword were both powerful and unique works of art. Constructed by Craftsmen of the highest skill suits of armour were only afforded by the wealthy. The Working Class or Soldier for hire usually acquired their Armor on the battlefield from some unfortunate soul who had passed on in battle and who would not require it in the afterlife.
