Design and Inspiration
This armour is a masterpiece of fantasy design, taking the best elements from history and combining them with modern demands for comfort and style. Both the chest and back sections consist of two separate parts, riveted together with strong leather straps. This segmented construction, inspired by historical armour, allows the wearer to bend and even sit down without issue—a feature not common to all cuirasses. A system of adjustable shoulder and side straps ensures you can easily fit the armour to your body.
A Tidbit from the World of Fantasy
In storytelling, the colour black on armour has always carried powerful symbolism. It can represent evil, as in the case of the Nazgûl, or signify a fallen hero or a character with a mysterious past. At the same time, blackening is a practical finish that protects steel from rust. Therefore, your character doesn't have to be evil—they could simply be a pragmatic warrior who prefers function over flashy polish. The choice is yours.

How to Care for Your Armour
This armour is delivered treated with a layer of preservative oil. You can easily wipe it off with a dry cloth before first use. The blackened finish provides good protection against rust, but we still recommend wiping the armour dry after each use (especially in damp conditions). For long-term storage, it is advisable to occasionally apply a thin film of preservative oil to the steel parts and to keep the leather straps in good condition with appropriate leather care products.
