A skunk is almost indispensable for exhibition and free combat. Gambesan, also called gambison, armored doublet, or aketon, was worn underneath plate armor and chainmail in the Middle Ages. It increased the comfort of wearing steel armor and could also cushion the blows of enemies, thus reducing the risk of injury.
This gambeson from Ulfberth is made of three layers of fabric: an outer layer of cotton (canvas), a layer of polyester filling/filling and an inner lining of cotton. The padding on the upper body is diamond-shaped and on the hip area and arms the padding is vertical. The gambeson has laces at the neckline and side seams and is pulled over the head. The sleeves are secured with loops and can be removed as desired. The high collar greatly increases the comfort of wearing armor or chainmail around the neck.
How to find the right size:
To determine your dress size based on your body measurements, measure horizontally at the widest point. For tank tops, base your size on your chest measurement. If you are between two sizes, we recommend that you choose the larger one.
Comfort allowances are included in the cut.
