Legend

27th of July, 1361, Island of Gotland

The troops were gathering on the edges of the city of Visby to face the Danish invaders, unleashed by their king to seize the riches and the land of the prosperous Swedish town. The enemies were battle-hardened Danes, armed with two-handed axes, crossbows, lances, and swords. The town's militia had more men but were ill-equipped and unprepared. Only a few veterans were holding the line amongst the townsfolk, protected by full sets of coats of plates. Even though they would struggle against the Danes's heavy infantry and volleys of arrows, they were determined to resist the invaders and act as bulwarks for their fellow citizens. History would tell us centuries later that their valiance wouldn't ultimately be enough, but their bravery in the face of a far superior force wouldn't be forgotten. 

Description

Inspired by one of the coats of plates found on Visby's battle archaeological site, this armor follows precisely the historical pattern of the time, each plate riveted to maximize comfort and protection for the wearer. Adapted for live-action roleplaying, our version of this famous armor uses aluminum plates for a lighter and more comfortable result, without compromising its overall appearance and decorum. This armor is the perfect alternative to traditional plate armor in LARP for anyone seeking a more modest or humble look. Coat of plates were often the first choice amongst the more common knights, mercenaries, men-at-arms, and militias from the 14th to the 16th century.

Parfait combo points d'armures versus poids

Depuis des années, j'utilise cette armure à Bicolline. J'adore le confort, par son poids léger, et sa mobilité. Les points d'une armure de métal, mais plus facile à porter qu'une armure de cuir !
