Medieval Hussar Pauldrons Hand Forged Steel Shoulder Armor with Brass Trim

Inspired by the fabled Polish Winged Hussars, these magnificent pieces of mediaeval armour, the Hussar Pauldrons with Brass Fittings, will give you the confidence to take on the battlefield. Each pauldron is made of 16 gauge mild steel and has overlapping, layered plates that offer superior shoulder protection and mobility.

The polished steel surface contrasts beautifully with the decorative brass trim and rivets, making these pauldrons not only protective but also a true display of craftsmanship. Their bold, imposing look instantly elevates your medieval outfit, whether for theatre combat, LARP battles, Renaissance fairs, or stage costume armor.

Equipped with adjustable leather straps and buckles, the pauldrons fit securely over a gambeson or chainmail. The articulation ensures freedom of movement while wielding weapons or engaging in melee.

Care Instructions

To ensure your pauldrons last for years:

• Store in a dry place away from humidity.

• For extended storage, wrap in an oiled cloth or keep with silica gel packs.

• Brass trim can be polished with a gentle metal cleaner to maintain shine.

Note on Hand-Forging
