Medieval Triple-Layer Quilted Gambeson (Type 1) Convertible Sleeve Design for Full or Half-Sleeve, Recycled Multi-Fibre Wadding for LARP & HEMA

Description

This medieval gambeson is designed for fighters who need both protection and flexibility. Made with a tough cotton canvas shell and three layers of dense padding, it absorbs impact while keeping you comfortable in sparring, or stage performance.

The detachable sleeve system lets you switch between full sleeves, half sleeves, or sleeveless wear, making it adaptable to weather and roleplay needs. Strong cotton lacing at the shoulders keeps the sleeves firmly in place.

The triple-layer quilted design prevents the padding from bunching, while the padded high collar protects your neck. A split back vent adds mobility, letting you kneel, lunge, or move freely in armor.

With adjustable leather straps and brass buckles, it provides a secure fit and a striking medieval appearance. Perfect for SCA, LARP, theater, festivals, or collectors who want historical accuracy.
