A gambeson, also called an armoured jacket 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 used-look gambeson from ulfberth is made from three layers of fabric: an outer layer of cotton fabric (canvas), a quilted polyester layer and a cotton inner lining. Vertical and diagonal quilting secures the padding and increases comfort. Hand-stitched rings in the chest area give the gambeson an armoured character. A patch, numerous hand-stitched details and a special wash give this gambeson a vintage character. Leather details and a contrasting-coloured lining create a nice contrast. The sides and neckline are fitted with stitching for added comfort.
