Viking Leather Arm Guard with Speed Lacing – Two-Tone
Perfect Protection and Style Combined
This model has been designed with a focus on both practicality and aesthetics. The base is made of sturdy yet supple genuine leather in a dark shade that wraps comfortably around your forearm. The dominant feature is the central reinforcement made of lighter leather, serving as the main impact zone for the bowstring. The edges of this centrepiece and the side strips are decorated with delicate stamped ornaments, giving the bracer a rustic and authentic appearance.
However, the biggest advantage is the fastening system. Instead of classic eyelets and laces that are difficult to tighten, you will find metal hooks (similar to those on hiking boots) and a strong elastic cord (shock cord) ending with a wooden toggle. Simply put it on, hook the loop, and you are ready. This system ensures that the arm guard stays firmly in place, does not slip, and does not restrict blood flow.
When and Why to Use This Arm Guard?
- Injury Prevention: Crucial for protecting the forearm from the string slap, which can cause painful bruises and hematomas.
- Clothing Control: In winter months or when wearing loose clothing, the bracer compresses the sleeve, preventing the string from catching on the fabric and ruining your shot.
- Historical Events and LARP: Thanks to its appearance, it is an ideal costume accessory.

Care Instructions
To keep the leather supple and beautiful for years, give it occasional care. Every once in a while, rub a special leather balm or beeswax into the leather. If the arm guard gets wet (sweat or rain), let it dry naturally at room temperature. Never dry it on a radiator or near an open fire, as the leather could crack and harden. Also, be careful with sharp objects that could cut the elastic cord.
