16th-17th Century Cuirassier Gauntlets with Gloves
Battle-ready cuirassier gauntlets from the 16th–17th century, handcrafted in 16-gauge steel with articulated finger lames and stitched suede gloves. Exceptional mobility and durability for LARP or reenactment.
Inspired by the gauntlets of 16th and 17th century cuirassiers, these steel gloves balance combat-ready strength with elegant mobility. Their fully articulated design features multiple finger lames riveted to a flexible leather base, allowing for fluid hand movement and excellent dexterity in battle.
Forged from sturdy 16-gauge mild steel and reinforced with careful riveting, these gauntlets are built to endure rigorous reenactments, tournaments, or intense LARP scenarios. Suede leather gloves are stitched directly into the armor for comfort and grip, while the wide cuff offers protection without compromising wrist flexibility. Each pair measures approximately 38 cm in length and weighs about 2.34 kg.
The battle horn cries out. Your squadron surges forward, steel glinting in the morning sun. As you clutch your weapon, you feel the weight and promise of your trusted cuirassier gauntlets—veterans of countless charges, ever ready to deflect the storm of war. Impact may strike, but your hands remain unshaken.
