Complete Landsknecht Armour Set

Steel with swagger. Discipline with drama.

The Complete Landsknecht Armour Set is a full upper-body harness forged for those who fight with flair and lead from the front. Inspired by the bold and notoriously flamboyant mercenary companies of the 16th century, this set delivers both battlefield presence and reliable protection — equally suited for LARP campaigns, reenactment displays, or the intensity of the theatre stage.

This is armour that doesn’t just shield the body — it defines the character. From the commanding line of the breastplate to the rhythmic layering of articulated steel, every piece has been designed to move with purpose and leave a lasting impression. Whether you're portraying a captain of fortune, a noble officer, or a war-weary veteran, this harness carries weight in both style and story.

At the heart of the set is the Landsknecht Cuirass, a robust torso plate that wraps the chest and back with clean lines and reinforced shaping. It includes integrated faulds and tassets, protecting the lower torso and hips while echoing the layered silhouette that made Landsknecht fashion so iconic.

Guarding the neck is the Landsknecht Gorget, built with three articulated lames that rise to cover the throat and a hidden rear plate that protects the spine and ensures balance across the shoulders. This smart construction helps anchor the armour securely in place, even during long hours of wear.

The Landsknecht Spaulders add sculptural drama to the upper body, with four cascading lames that allow full shoulder rotation and besagews to shield the armpits — combining visual flair with essential function. These are matched by the Landsknecht Vambraces, a full set of articulated arm guards that cover the upper arms, elbows, and forearms with fluid protection that moves as naturally as the warrior inside it.

Each piece is forged from 1 mm steel, offering a strong yet lightweight build that allows for agility on the field and comfort during prolonged wear. Fastened with leather straps and brass buckles, the entire set is designed for easy adjustment over gambesons, arming coats, or stage costumes.

Choose between two dramatic finishes:

• Polished Steel – a gleaming, high-status look for gallant knights, bannered captains, or duelling elites.

• Epic Dark – a rugged, battle-worn tone suited for veterans, black-powder mercenaries, or grizzled freeblades.

Whether you're building a complete historical ensemble or layering it into a custom fantasy kit, the Landsknecht Armour Set offers the perfect fusion of character, comfort, and commanding presence.
