History of medieval Europe would be bland and boring without knights in shining armor. Whether you are a LARP newbie or old campaigner, we are ready to share our passion for these damn beautiful steel suits! ArmStreet has been producing medieval armor for sale for over ten years - for individuals and teams, for stages and movies. And during this time we've faced a bunch of common myths and widespread misconceptions surrounding this subject. Therefore we feel obliged to dispel them to facilitate your search for cool medieval armor.

Not really, this myth has roots stretching back to the tournament armor, that have never been used on the battlefield. Real medieval armor kit usually weighs 44 to 55 lb, and a helmet - from 4 to 8 lb. Thus, total weight rarely exceeded 65 lb, which is less than full equipment of fireman or modern infantryman. Only in the 17th century the weight of combat armor was increased to make them bulletproof.

Middle ages armour with sliding rivets allowed comparatively free movement. Note, the above is absolutely true only for custom-size armor, that perfectly fit the measurements of the owner. If the armor has been received by inheritance or taken from a captive, the new owner gave up mobility for better protection.

Mobility was an essential for well-trained medieval knights and soldiers, while thickening of the armor invariably increases its weight, and thus - reduces mobility. The armorers skillfully strengthen middle ages armor with forging, adding reinforcement ribs and overlapping elements, thus saving on the thickness of steel.

Now reenactment organizations do regulate the thickness of the armor in attempts to better protect the fighters during buhurts, compensating the lack of training with the rapidly growing thickness of the armor.

The vast majority of the survived combat armor is about 1 mm thick. They were not intended to protect against direct strokes, but to protect from the glancing, grazing and accidental blows. Nevertheless, in our medieval armor shop we have both authentic armor and thickened armor for cut-and-trust.

Yes, purchasing armor has always been an expensive enterprise. Armor of low and medium quality, outdated or used, were affordable for mercenaries and lower nobility. Ready-made medieval armour for sale could be found at the markets, fairs and local medieval armor stores. Armors were frequently ordered from famous masters from abroad, same now you can order them from ArmStreet being anywhere in the world, from UK to the USA, from Australia to Alaska.

But high-end custom medieval armor decorated by renowned masters cost more than a man had ever seen in his life: the price for only a helmet exceeded the cost of a cow, and full armor kit cost as much as a prosperous village. Besides the cost of all the materials, the price included precise custom fitting, a large set of spare parts and guarantee tests.

Advances in technology and the large selection of outdated armor in the market constantly reduced the cost of the armor. For example, in the 14-15 centuries, even seedy English infantryman could afford a brigandine which was a benefit of the richest knights less than 60 years ago.

Each model is the best for its purpose. Before you choose where to buy medieval armor, decide on how you're going to use it. So to participate in role-playing games choose lightweight and non-friable armor, armor for reenactment should be historically accurate, and for buhurt - strong, reliable, and maneuverable. Remember any armor has pros and cons:

A bulletproof vest, also known as a ballistic vest, kevlar vest, or bullet proof body vest, is a popular type of body armor. It provides ballistic protection by absorbing the impact of bullets or projectiles to protect the body.

The most common type of bulletproof vest incorporates the use of soft armor ballistic panels in the front and back with NIJ level II, level IIA, or level IIIA protection and is primarily used by law enforcement, security guards, and private citizens.

Those who are frequently exposed to threats from rifle rounds or armor piercing bullets like active shooter rescue teams or special mission units on the other hand use bullet proof vests or Plate Carriers in conjunction with hard body armor plates that have an NIJ Level III (level 3) to Level IV (level 4) protection level.

Their level of protection also depends on the material of the ballistic panels and the type of combat it is designed for. While the most popular type is a Kevlar vest that usually offers protection from level IIA to Level IIIA threats, you can also find bullet proof vests with additional pockets that can be inserted with hard armor made of ceramic or steel ballistic panels for protection similar to a plate carrier.

Body armor protection levels are rated by the National Institute of Justice (NIJ), with level III (3) and level IIIA (3A) ballistic armor panels, most often soft body armor, being some of the most popular for their versatility and level of protection.

Note that the higher the protection level, the heavier the armor plate usually becomes. Some people may opt for as low as NIJ level II (2) protection if they only expect handgun rounds and knives as a threat.

Keep in mind the caliber or the weapon you might face though. While NIJ level II (2) may do fine against a 9mm handgun, it is much less effective against higher caliber ones such as a .44 magnum that Level IIIA soft armor offers. Also, keep in mind that not all bullet proof vests or kevlar vest are stab proof or spike proof.

Most body armor manufacturers include additional armor plate pockets so that the wearer can add hard body armor plates up to a level IV to his bullet proof vest to increase the ballistic protection level as well as stab proof capabilities similar to how plate carriers function.

Bullet proof vests are most often associated with Kevlar, and a Kevlar vest is one of the more popular types you can find. Nowadays you can find bullet proof vests made from a variety of materials. From kevlar vests, to ceramic body armor, and hard steel armor, there are many different choices to fit your threat level requirements.

We partnered with top quality brands for body armor like BulletSafe, Protection Group Denmark, SafeGuard Armor, Spartan Armor Systems, and AR500 Armor to ensure you have access to only the highest quality Bullet Proof Vests and other Ballistic Body Armor. Invest in your safety with our Body Armor Packages for law enforcement, military, and civilians who need protection against higher-level threats.

Our masterwork Daimyo Class Armors are traditional Edo Era design, crafted to be beautiful works of art and until recently where only sold in Japan. In the Edo Period, the Daimyo spent much of their wealth on embellishing their armor, making it more decorative and less functional. Our Daimyo Class series suits, although fully functional, focus more on beauty than battle readiness. We use a mixture of genuine and luxury synthetic materials to help add an unmatched luster and shine to these striking artisan armors. 041b061a72
