Brown leather arm guards – oiled leather arm guards (pair)
These arm guards, made from vegetable-tanned buffalo leather, are a sturdy companion for medieval markets, LARP events or re-enactments. The pull-up oiled leather used is naturally durable and develops a characteristic patina over time: small scratches and signs of wear combine to create an authentic worn look, giving each piece its own story. If you wish to tone down the effect slightly, simply buff the leather.
The simple, unadorned design makes these arm guards a versatile piece of armour. Whether you’re a ranger, archer, Viking, craftsman or pirate – they fit into many character concepts without overpowering them. The all-round lacing allows for individual adjustment to the forearm, ensuring the guards sit securely whilst maintaining freedom of movement. As leather is a natural product, the colour and grain vary slightly from piece to piece – making each pair unique.
The arm guards are part of Battle Merchant’s ‘Drunter und Drüber’ collection – a LARP and medieval range designed for characters operating in the shadows: rangers, archers and adventurers who value an authentic look and practical everyday usability.
