Product Description

Padded gambeson or aketon for use in combat.

There are two types of gambeson; those designed to be worn beneath armour, and those designed to be worn as independent armour. The latter tend to be thicker and higher in the collar. For common soldiers who could not afford mail or plate armour, the gambeson, combined with a helmet as the only additional protection, remained a common sight on European battlefields during the entire Middle Ages.
