This pair of Steel Vambraces will go with a large range of period outfits and weapons. They are nicely formed and lined with leather, designed to be worn on the lower arm. Straps on the inner arm adjust so it will fit almost anyone. When the head and hands were protected by armor, the lower arm was one of the prime targets in swordplay historically. Thus the use of vambraces like these. In many cases they were the only pieces of armor worn, most often along with a mail shirt. Our Steel Vambraces are sold as a pair. Made from 18-gauge steel, they are ideal for LARPing and cosplaying.
Key Features:
- Simple style goes with many different looks
- Curved steel comfortably fits the natural shape of the arm
- Great for LARPing and cosplaying
Materials:
- Made of 18-gauge steel and lined with leather

These are fine vambraces; however, if you have gorilla arms like me you might find they need some adjusting, also the straps seem to be of lower quality than expected, but they do work.

Very nice item. Well packaged, just know they are protected in a protective oil film so remove carefully from packaging. Very pleased with them though.
