Leather Tassets

A tasset is a piece of plate armor that is designed to protect the upper legs. They traditionally hang from a cuirass or a fauld. Our Leather Tassets do exactly the same thing, only they are obviously made from leather, not metal. It might be fair to say that our leather tassets are a slight twist, a re-imagining of an already existing piece of armour. These tassets have been made from a series of leather plates that have been secured together to provide flexibility, strength, and durability. They are also hand-crafted from solid, durable 13/15 oz. leather that works wonderfully as a form of armour. These leather tassets have a belt loop that you can attach to a belt or straps on your cuirass as well as a thigh strap to keep them from moving around. Our Leather Tassets look very good and they will protect you well enough to keep you fighting the good fight.

Care Instructions:

• Remove dirt with a hard brush, then gently clean with leather soap and a soft, damp cloth. Remove soap with a separate damp cloth, then use a dry cloth to wipe away remaining water. Let dry naturally. Condition with oil or polish, then wipe with a final cloth to remove excess residue. For more information, check out our guide on How to Take Care of Leather Armour.
