Breast Plate 15th Century C Steel
Inspired by 15th-century Gothic armour, this sturdy steel breastplate offers historical flair and reliable protection for LARP and reenactment warriors alike. Adjustable leather straps ensure a solid fit when paired with a gambeson. Whether you’re a pikeman, mercenary, or knight, it brings authentic might to your costume.
This Gothic breastplate is a faithful reproduction of late 15th-century torso protection, ideal for those seeking both historical accuracy and battlefield mobility. Forged from durable 16-gauge mild steel, it offers solid frontal defense without the weight or cost of a full cuirass. With multiple genuine leather straps and buckles at the back, it adjusts securely over a gambeson to ensure both comfort and a snug fit.
Versatile and striking, this piece complements a wide range of character types and looks especially fearsome when paired with Gothic pauldrons and a matching gorget (sold separately). Whether used for LARP, historical reenactment, or stage combat, this breastplate brings bold presence to your armor kit.
The clash of steel resounds through the battlefield. Amidst the thunder of hooves and the chaos of warcries, a lone figure stands resolute—his chest encased in burnished steel. He is no noble lord, yet the glint of his breastplate strikes fear into the hearts of foes. For in the wars of the late Middle Ages, it was not only knights who wore steel, but the grim mercenaries, the seasoned billmen, and the daring light cavalry—all seeking their fortune clad in just enough iron to survive another day.
Ideal for mercenaries, city guards, pikemen, Gothic knights, and seasoned soldiers of fortune. Also perfect for LARP characters who favor a gritty, grounded look—light cavalry, campaign-hardened veterans, or Gothic-style noble retainers.
