Knights wore armour to protect as much of their body as they could. They would have approved of wearing the Medieval Steel Knee Armour into battle. Made of 16 gauge steel, these knee guards feature multiple sections for increased mobility. Rivets join the knee section to the leg sections and the side plates. The side plates flare out and up to protect the side of the knee, especially when bending the knee. The knee armour has leather sections with holes to attach other leg armour pieces, not included. It comes with laces for the holes. The pair of guards secure to the legs with a couple pairs of straps and buckles. Wear these knee guards to historical reenactments, LARP events, or conventions.
This item is handmade, therefore, it may vary slightly from what is shown above.

Nice, very good quality. As far as off the shelf, LARP armor is concerned, this fit me pretty well. For bigger legs you may need to modify it a little to make it fit a bit more comfortably.
