Fantasy theme gave a significant push for hobbys in one way or another connected with fencing and armor developing. Of course we can not ingnore this direction. In general, if you want to collect the most realistic fantasy armor - we are at your service! Especially since our armor has a nice design and you can create the necessary image with it.

Part of our armor elements are also suitable for HEMA. But in the future we plan to develop mittens, elbows, knees, etc specially for this direction. Part of our armor elements are also suitable for HEMA. But in the future we plan to develop specially for this discipline mittens, elbows, knees, etc. This direction of fencing is based on medieval fencing books (training books) and special very flexible and light swords are used here.

In fighting stylization, we first of all provide protection and convenience. When developing such armor, we combine the existing elements and parts of the medieval armor existing separately, but in close regions and time frames.

In historical reconstruction, we try to maximally repeat the geometry of the example artifact. The difficulty is that often both the example and the artifact are located far from us. Therefore, such work requires considerable skill.

This is a stylization. The ribs on the guardrail of the knee are borrowed from the Museum of Arts of Philadelphia, the example for the main part is a plate leg armor from Army Museum in Paris.

Description

The plate cuisse has a complicated structure: the upper parts are assembled on the sliding rivets, the main detail has a triangle rolling, the side part is opened with the two ornamented loops. The side guardrail on the plate knee has hardened ribs. The vertical rib comes through the whole thigh.

The general geometry is specific for the European plate leg armor. And whereas the plate cuisse “Tristan” are made to be quite simple, here we have not only  functionality, but elegance as well.
