Gambeson Weapons

Gambeson Arms – The Shadow That Protects in the Night

Comfort and lightweight defense for practical warriors

You are darkness, you are the night. You are the shadow that creeps across the earth, making men grip their swords more tightly when the sun has set.

But you're also practical. The cold night breeze is part of your world, and you value warmth and protection. That's why Gambeson Arms are ideal for wearing under your bracers.

A functional piece under the armor

These cotton -padded bracers from Epic Armoury are designed to provide extra comfort and protection under heavy steel or leather armor. Made with padded cotton canvas, with a soft polyester inner lining and a medium cotton outer layer, they also protect archers from bowstrings.

Gambeson Arms feature evenly stitched padding and are secured to the forearm by a cotton thread threaded through brass eyelets, ensuring a firm and comfortable fit.

History and tradition

Padded armor was common in many cultures and eras, worn as protection under chain mail or plate armor. Historically, a European gambeson from the Early Middle Ages could stop sword blows, heavy arrows, and mace or axe blows when combined with chain mail.
