Stand tall like an English knight.
This handcrafted early 15th-century English cuirass is a complete upper-body defense system inspired by rare surviving documentation and museum-backed reconstructions. Featuring a sculpted breastplate, two hinged backplates (reredos), and the historically distinct “paunce de alwite” — the segmented skirt of plates — this armor offers maximum protection without sacrificing battlefield mobility.

Whether you're a Medieval combat fighter, historical reenactor, or collector of fine arms, this piece is as real as it gets. Inspired by detailed reconstructions like those at Wasson Artistry and scholarship-backed videos from armor historians, this cuirass blends scholarly authenticity with raw, combat-worthy strength.

Perfect for my body and fit preference, plus COTTON
Size: X-Large, Color: Set-unbl
Update: Different color packs fit differently. I've purchased two packages, one all-black and one black with the colorful waistbands. The all-black are a little smaller. IMO the all-black run a half to a full size small, and the black with the colorful waistbands run true to size. Listen, all of our bodies and preferences are so different, but these are perfect for my body and my fit preference. They hit at my bellybutton and I would describe the length as short-boyshorts, but not hipsters. Most importantly, they're cotton, which my body reacts much better to these days.
