Padded Cuisses

Post by Christian H. Tobler »

Hello all,

I'm looking to upgrade to some better padded cuisses for my early 14th c. kit. Who does these? I'd like them to be:

1. Sufficiently fitted that they needn't have laces in the back, but will slip on and still looked good.
2. Have some simple, wavy dagging at the bottom hem.
3. Taper up toward the hip, not like the poor pattern of the GDFB variety.

Thanks in advance!

Yours,

Christian

Count Galvyn Lockhart's wonderful Lady did mine and I love them. She'll also add "pockets" upon request to add metal plates to, all the while still retaining the look of padded quisses.

I suggest Sir Gareth as well.

His work is exceptional.
His communication is ideal.
Most important his word is Gold.

But what he says is so very true!
Never give in--never, never, never, never, in nothing great or small, large or petty, never give in except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy. Churchill, 1941
