Warrior Neck Protector 200210

You look at your senior officer as he makes his way through the line of your fellow soldiers. Your fate and the fate of your entire unit rests on this veteran's word, and you are relieved to no longer bear such a heavy burden.

“We must fight!” your officer shouts for all to hear. You adjust your Neck Plate Warrior armor, double-checking the buckles as you listen to him continue. “For our homes and for our families, we will fight until we can fight no more!” With a resounding cheer, your fellow soldiers prepare to charge. You draw your weapon, anxious and scared all at once.

The battle has begun.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury's Neck Plate Warrior is a gorget designed to sit around the neck and give additional protection to the throat. An elongated front piece and a shorter back piece are decorated with rivets and can be attached to the shoulder guards using sturdy top-grain leather straps. Although the armor is designed to match Epic Armoury's "Warrior" set, it is fully interchangeable with other Epic Armoury armor to completely customize your character's look.

Secure the Neck Plate Warrior by tightening the leather straps across the shoulders, adjusting so the armour sits comfortably around the neck. Made from 1mm thick mild steel and top grain leather straps and fittings, this piece of armour is built to withstand the abuse of a LARP or historical reenactment with regular leather and metal armour care.

Available in small and medium/large/X-large sizes.
