BTW leg warmers with chain, spring steel, 8 mm, untreated ULF-BTW-LG

Chain leg warmers , made of spring steel, 8 mm, untreated, suitable for combat displays, the leg warmers

Chain leg warmers, also called chausses , were used as leg protection in the late Middle Ages. Often plate parts were still worn over it, so that the chain armour was only supposed to protect the free places. In contrast to the relatively stiff Ulfberth® chain leg warmers, they are supplied as a pair. They are now available in almost all types of fabric. They can be attached individually, e.g. B. with wire, leather nests or cords and/or with leather straps. However, these are not included in the scope of delivery. Another way of attaching them is to sew them onto existing (leather) trousers. Chain leg warmers, by the way - plate armour , are much more flexible and adapt much better to the body shape.
