Brave Pauldrons – Polished

Equip yourself with the polished Brave Pauldrons and step into a new world of knights, swords, and chivalry. They’re perfect for your armored LARP kit and your knightly costume alike.

Forged by Zeughaus

Forged from 18 gauge mild steel, these pauldrons are intended for LARP combat and costuming. The shoulder pauldrons are sold as a pair. They’re perfect for styling historical European knights, noble paladins, armored warriors, and other medieval fantasy characters.

The pauldrons are designed as four plates held together with leather straps. The four separate plates are riveted to leather straps on the back, which allows them a degree of flexibility to match the wearer’s movements. The upper piece, called the gardbrace, is shaped like a triangular dome with three reinforcing steel rivets to protect the front, back, and top of the shoulders. The gardbrace can be attached to the Late Medieval Avenger Steel Gorget thanks to a buckle at the top.

The smaller section below the gardbrace is called the rerebrace and covers the upper arms. The gardbrace and the rerebrace have contoured borders for added detail. Across the lower rerebrace, underneath the pauldron, is an adjustable strap meant to buckle around your arm.

Perfect for the Next Adventure

While these knight pauldrons are best paired with other Zeughaus armor pieces, you can still enjoy their unique presence on most medieval armor ensembles. When purchasing knight armor pieces, in order for the pieces to be compatible, it is best to stay within the brand.

Engage in epic LARP battles with confidence wearing these medieval fantasy steel pauldrons. The straps ensure these Zeughaus pauldrons stay in place during intense battles or walking through Renaissance fairs.

It is recommended to wear these steel shoulder guards on a suit of arming wear. It is also recommended to buckle the straps tight when placed on arming wear, as gravity will want to pull them down and securing them with a snug fit will help them stay in place longer. Whether you’re charging across the battlefields of fantasy or strolling through bustling events, these Brave Pauldrons are an excellent choice.
