Gastir Shield

GastiR Shield

THE REST IS HISTORY!

"The Northman was surprisingly agile and skilled. His sword didn't express swipes or foolish blows. Rather, it sliced ​​through the air elegantly from behind the shield like a viper waiting for a moment of opportunity. The shield, covered in leather and painted with a swirling pattern, was applied in attacks that quickly overwhelmed my opponents. I had heard tales of wild berserkers in the North. Instead, I witnessed refined techniques and sophisticated precision."

The Epic Armoury GastiR Shield is made in collaboration with Lejre Land of Legends . Historical-archaeological research and communication. Compared to our previous Viking-inspired shields, the GastiR Shield is adjusted to improve authenticity in several factors: The size of the shield boss is slightly reduced for a better fit with an unarmored hand. The front of the shield mimics a leather covering, based on research indicating this was applied to the shields for durability. The shield is available in four different patterns, all chosen from interpretations of the shields depicted on the Oseberg Tapestry . While it is impossible to claim total authenticity, we can confidently say this is our best attempt. The GastiR Shield will serve you well when fighting for clan and king!
