Description
Step into the role of a medieval warrior with the Cotton Padded Collar Armor and Cap, crafted to ease the weight of heavier armor pieces while shielding the neck and head from blows. This set is made from thick, tightly quilted cotton padding, which was a common material used beneath metal armor to absorb shocks and prevent bruising during combat.
The natural ecru and black colors reflect the practical dyes available in the medieval period, lending an authentic appearance that suits reenactments and living history events. Designed to fit a range of sizes, it offers a snug yet comfortable barrier between the wearer and their outer armor or helmet.
