Functional Gambesons from Dark Knight Armoury

Dark Knight Armoury offers a large variety of Functional Gambesons. You can wear a Gambeson with Steel or Leather Armour. Our padded Gambesons provide comfort and prevent your steel armour from pinching your skin while you are in motion. Leather Armour is usually a little rough on the back side and a gambeson will prevent that from rubbing against your skin. We have great styles of Quilted Gambesons such as our Locksley Gambeson, Knight Gambeson with Crusader Cross and many other classic styles that will go with any look. Whether you are looking for a Gambeson with long sleeves, short sleeves, detachable sleeves or no sleeves, Dark Knight Armoury has the best selection of Medieval Gambesons on the net.
