Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between pauldrons and spaulders?

Pauldrons typically offer more comprehensive protection as they extend from the shoulder to the upper arm, often overlapping with other armor pieces for thick defense. Spaulders, on the other hand, usually cover just the shoulder area and are more compact. Both are essential for protecting the upper body in battle, but pauldrons often provide a more extensive defense.

Can I wear pauldrons or spaulders without a full suit of armor?

Yes, both pauldrons and spaulders can be worn independently. Knights and soldiers in history sometimes wore them alone, particularly over a gambeson or chainmail when full plate armor was impractical. However, they are frequently used with a breastplate or gorget for optimal upper body and shoulder protection. When planning to wear pauldron pieces separately, imagine how the rivets and its metal color will affect the rest of your outfit.

How do I care for and maintain my pauldrons or spaulders?

You cannot be half-hearted when maintaining armor–regular maintenance is essential to prevent rust. After use, clean the pauldron and the rest of the armor with a cloth, wiping away moisture, dirt, or sweat. A thin layer of oil or wax can help protect against corrosion. Leather armor should be conditioned using proper leather care products to keep it supple and prevent cracking.
