Churburg Shoulders - Dark

N.B.: Gorget / mounting point sold separately 

Trust in steel. It doesn’t need to be fancy, leave that to elves. It doesn’t need to be heavy, leave that to the dwarves. Good steel will keep you alive in the hottest and most dangerous fighting.

Your commander’s orders are never far from your mind, and your armour has proven him right dozens of times. Securely fastened, with a good shine and no rest, you will fall before your Churburg Shoulders do. Because you trust in steel.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Epic Dark Churburg Shoulders are a set of two simple spaulders. The spaulders feature one solid metal plate--or lame--featuring a beveled bottom to turn away strikes from the arm. The spaulders are fastened with leather straps around the biceps and at the shoulder, attaching to a breastplate or gambeson.

The Churburg Shoulders are neutral in style and fully usable with other Epic Armoury metal products, giving you the freedom to customize your character’s costume. Made of 1 mm thick galvanized mild steel and top-grain leather straps and fittings, this armour piece is built to withstand the abuse of a LARP or reenactment with regular leather and metal armour care.

HISTORY

• Plate armour became more popular as firearm technology became more prevalent during the 13th century
• Typically worn over a gambeson for comfort and safety
