description

Sleeveless gambesons with festoons on the bottom hem was popular among the crossbowmen and archers in the XII-XIII centuries.

Though, it was not used by soldiers, who participated in combats. This model of gambison did not mean complete body protection, so it couldn’t be used for close fights and combats. But, when combined with hauberk, this light gambeson armor was very steady going for fighting on distance.

Cut on the neckline is being fastened with firm leather strap.

You give us your specific measures and wishes - we make you a completely custom gambeson that will bring you joy and comfort for a long time! 

You can use this medieval gambeson for:

  • SCA
  • HEMA
  • Larp
  • Stage performances
  • Medieval festivals
  • Reenactment events

Base price includes following options:

  1. 1-2 layers of padding (natural sheet wadding 50% cotton, 50% wool);
  2. Natural (uncoloured) cotton for outer and inner shell;
  3. XS-L -size;
  4. Black leather strap;
  5. Standard festoons (as on the main photo) – variant 10

Quantity of layer depends on the main armour. If you plan to wear gambison under the hauberk, so 5-6 layers will be required. If there will be usual plate armour or brigandine, so 2-3 layers of natural wadding is enough.

Cotton or linen gambesons of black or blue colors were more typical for infantrymen and archers. We also offer wool, leather or velvet for your quilted gambeson.

If you choose half-coloured or quarter-coloured gambeson, please inform us by [email protected], what colours you prefer and its exact disposition.
