Merc Tassets
DescriptionSomeone might say you're a cruel person. The truth is, you're not cruel, but you're not a hero either. The Battle of Delle isn't a battle for your homeland or your own people, but the pay is good and the fighting is even better.
Life as a mercenary has shaped you into a hardened and effective warrior, and while some call it "luck" when your enemy's blade slips from your Merc Armor, you call it strategy. After all, your enemy's heart is now an open target.
DETAILS
Epic Armoury's mercenary tassets are reminiscent of typical pikeman armor from the late medieval and Renaissance periods. The piece consists of three wide metal plates that overlap each other to provide laminated protection to the hips and upper thighs. The tassets leave the pelvis somewhat unprotected, and a codpiece would typically be added to protect the groin area. The tassets are secured in place with leather laces.
Mercenary Tassocks are designed to match Epic Armoury's Mercenary Armor and are the only tassocks not fully interchangeable with other Epic Armory metal products. Crafted from 1mm thick mild steel with premium leather straps and fittings, this piece of armor is designed to withstand the abuse of a LARP or reenactment with the usual care of leather and metal armor.
Available in one size.

Maintenance
Epic Armory metalwork products should still be treated with oil and kept in a dry place. All of our metal armor contains leather parts that require regular maintenance using leather care products to prevent the leather from drying out.
Cleaning
If your armor gets wet, it is important to dry it completely as soon as possible.
After handling, use, or after six months of storage or display, all metal should be wiped clean with a clean cloth. Lightly oil the cleaned surface with a quality machine or mineral oil. Alternatively, you can apply a coat of wax to the entire surface of the exposed metal. Let the wax dry for a couple of hours, then lightly buff it with a soft cloth.
Prevention and elimination of rust
Store your armor in a dry place and check it every two months for signs of rust. If you find any, remove it by gently rubbing the affected area with a mildly abrasive pad moistened with paste wax, oil, or water-displacing fluid.
Leather belts and accessories
Clean by removing dirt with a stiff brush, then gently scrub with leather soap and a clean, damp cloth until the leather appears clean. Remove the soap with a separate damp cloth to clean any soap residue, and then use a dry cloth to wipe away any remaining water from the leather.
You should always condition leather after cleaning it, as the soap will have removed some of its natural oils. Treat the leather with mink oil, olive oil, or beeswax using a clean cloth, gently rubbing a small amount of oil or wax into the leather in circles. Allow the leather to soak in the oil before wiping it with a final clean cloth to remove excess residue.
