14th century Coat of Plates for short fighter SOLD
Posted: Sat Feb 19, 2011 11:53 am
I made this coat of plates to cover my chest and upper abdomen because I wanted to be able to reach down and touch my toes. I wore a wide belt with it to protect my navel. Will fit fighters shorter than 5' 5" unless they are really scrawny- a chubby guy or a dude with a monster ribcage (like me) will get the best fit. Plates are LIGHT high grade aluminum and the rivets are round top aluminum brazier rivets. Buckles by Thorthor and all the straps are tricked out. Shoulders have reenforcement leathers sewn in so that spaulders can't be torn away in battle.
Has been worn over a mail shirt so the leather below the armpits is slightly chewed up.
$250
