Product Details
These simple steel spaulders are the earliest type of medieval plate pieces for shoulder protection that we know about. They are copied from originals found in the mass graves on the Island of Gotland at the Battle of Visby site. They were normally worn as part of a coat-of plates but can also be worn over a mail shirt.
This matched pair of Visby pauldrons are an easy way to significantly upgrade the protection of your coat-of-plates, maille or gambeson. Once laced and tied into position onto an anchoring point they provide plate defences for the top of your shoulders.
They are made from 16 gauge steel and their pre-drilled holes allow for the leather laces (that are also included) to be used to tie and secure them into position.
You can use our brass aiglets with cords to secure them.
Price includes tracked shipping within New Zealand.
