A gambeson, also called an armoured doublet or aketon, is almost indispensable for free and exhibition combat. The gambeson was worn under chain and plate armour in the late Middle Ages. It increased the comfort of wearing the knight's armour and was also able to absorb enemy blows, thus reducing the risk of injury.

This gambeson from Ulfberth is made from three layers of fabric: an outer layer of cotton fabric (canvas), a quilted layer of polyester and an inner lining of cotton. Vertical quilting secures the padding and increases comfort. The gambeson is closed with straps that are fixed on the inside and are therefore not noticeable. Slits in the hem of the sleeves and in the side seam increase comfort. Can also be worn as a winter jacket.
