Legend
In the heart of a vast, dark forest, a man named Herveus walked the paths between the giant trees, carrying on his shoulders his hunt of the day, a small red deer. He was not a legendary warrior or a renowned lord; simply a man of few words, but many deeds. He loved protecting his village, looking after his family, and enjoying his simple but rewarding daily life. Sometimes, Herveus would explore forgotten ruins and bring back lost treasures alongside local adventurers, or assemble the local militia to protect the hamlet from an orc or goblin attack.
And despite his many exploits, which might seem modest but had saved the lives of many villagers, Herveus remained humble and generous. His leather armor, worn by battles and journeys, reflected his stable and competent life. Practical and durable, it enabled him to move with agility and had withstood many blows without failing. For him, the armor was not just an object of protection, but a faithful companion, a silent witness to his many adventures.
Description
The Classic Armor is a practical and universal model of medieval leather armor. Its simple design suits any type of LARP character while being easily adjustable and compatible with a wide range of accessories. Made from sturdy leather and designed to last a lifetime, this armor can even be customized in vegetal leather to your taste. The armor torso is crafted with solid pieces covering the chest and back, and slats protecting the abdomen. The morion-style leather helmet features a central crest, wide rims and cheeks to protect the face, and a chin strap for optimum comfort. The Classic Slattered Pauldrons give plenty of shoulder and arm protection, with internal reinforcements to ensure a curved shape over time. Easy to open on the side of your choice thanks to rows of snap fasteners, the gorget is also ideal for adding pauldrons or fixing it to a gambison thanks to its rows of side eyelets. With its removable, length-adjustable hand, the Classic Bracers are a versatile protection with multiple style options. With its 5 overlapping slats, central ring for mobility and multiple belt loops, the tassets are solid and practical pieces of armor that fit very well with the Classic Greaves. While this LARP armor is perfect for a young warrior, militiaman, guard or soldier, it's equally well suited to a scout, bandit or ranger.
