Merc armor offer
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
This best-selling armor set includes Epic Armoury's Mercenary Torso Armor, Tassets, Shoulder Plates, RFB Arm Guard, and RFB Leg Guard, to fully meet your costuming needs at a lower cost. Each piece is crafted from mild steel with rolled edges and premium leather straps and fittings, designed to withstand the abuse of a LARP or reenactment while keeping the wearer safe and comfortable. With regular care of your leather and metal armor, you can expect this armor to last a long time!
Available in black and brown leather, and in medium/large sizes.
Torso armor
The Mercenary Torso Armor is a breastplate made of leather and steel that covers the front and back of the wearer's torso. The front of this breastplate surrounds the wearer's neck in an inverted U-shape, with the apex of the chest protecting the thorax before sloping around the ribcage to protect under the arms. The lower edge of the breastplate is slightly rounded, allowing it to fit around the crest of the hips while still covering the vulnerable pelvis. The steel plate is worn over a black leather suit, which attaches to the rear leather plate at the shoulders and sides.
Escarpments
Mercenary tassets are reminiscent of the typical pikeman armor of the late medieval and Renaissance periods. The piece consists of three broad metal plates that overlap each other to provide laminated protection to the hips and upper thigh. Historically, these laminated plates and their sculpted ridges reinforced the armor and helped deflect attacks suffered in the great massed pike fights of the medieval European battlefield. The tassets leave the pelvis somewhat unprotected, and a codpiece would typically be added to protect the groin area. Mercenary tassets are unique in that they are not completely interchangeable with other epic armor, having been specially made to fit the Merc Torso Armor via a set of square eyelets on the Merc armor. The tassets are secured in place with leather laces.
Shoulders
The Shoulder Mercenary is a set of two shoulder pads. The shoulder pads are metal plates with sculpted ridges that overlap each other to provide laminated protection for the shoulder joints and upper arms. The Shoulder Plate Mercenary pairs beautifully with 'Merc' armors, but is fully interchangeable with other Epic Armory armors, giving complete freedom to customize character costumes.
RFG Arm & Leg Protection

Maintenance
Epic Armory Metal Works products should be treated with acid-free wax or quality vegetable oil and kept in a dry place. Metal armor containing leather components requires separate leather care. Read the "Leather Straps and Accessories" section below for information on cleaning and maintaining leather with leather care products.
Degrease and prepare your armor for use
When you open your armor, you may be overwhelmed by the smell of grease and oil. The oil has been applied to protect your armor during storage and transport. Use a degreasing product or mineral spirits and a dry cloth or paper towels to remove all the oil from the plate armor pieces. It's a little more difficult to remove all the oil from chain mail links, but it can be done the same way. Wipe off as much as you can with a dry cloth, and with the remaining oil, you can degrease the chain mail with mineral spirits or another solvent by spraying it on the links. You can also choose to completely submerge your chain mail in a degreasing product and use your hands to agitate the metal in the solution; this will completely remove all the oil and grease from your links. After removing the oil, be sure to dry the armor thoroughly. Bright, warm sunlight is excellent for drying your armor, but you can also use a hair dryer or heat gun to speed up the process. Be careful not to overheat any piece of leather when using a heat gun.
Cleaning
Moisture is the enemy of armor and chain mail. If your armor gets wet, it's important to dry it thoroughly as soon as possible. After handling, use, or after six months of storage or display, all metal should be wiped with a clean cloth. Lightly oil the cleaned surface with a quality, acid-free vegetable 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 wax or quality acid-free vegetable oil. Epic Dark products are specially treated to resist rust, but should still be treated with oil and stored in a dry place.
Leather belts and accessories
Clean them 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.
