RFB Breastplate Epic Armoury’s Ready for Battle Breastplate is a handmade cuirass designed to protect the front of the torso and abdomen. The plate rests at the hips and has a smal l flange or sword turner that deflects blows from the weak spot where torso and leg armor fit together. Sculpted to fit the body and add structural strength to the steel, this simple armor piece is fully usable with other Epic Armoury metal products. Secure the RFB Breastplate by tightening the 4 cm wide full-grain leather straps across the back, keeping the breastplate in place over your gambeson. Made of polished 1 mm thick mild steel and leather straps and fittings, this armor piece is built to withstand the abuse of a LARP or reenactment with regular leather and metal armor care. Available in Polished Steel and Epic Dark colors Available in sizes S, M, L and XL History Plate armor became more popular as firearm technology became more prevalent during the 13th century Historically designed with sculpted ridges to provide reinforced protection and to deflect attacks on a chaotic battlefield Show more
