Blackened Markward Tassets

The perfect medieval plate armour for protecting your thighs and lower abdomen, the Blackened Markward Tassets possess a practical yet striking design with their sturdy construction, dark metal finish, and riveted detailing. The two thigh plates hang from the waist piece, which fastens in the back with a pair of buckles. The thigh armour has been designed to go with the Blackened Markward Cuirass (MY100045), though they will combine well with other LARP armour, as well. We recommend wearing padded arming wear underneath the steel tassets for increased comfort. When planning for your next LARP battle or re-enactment, make sure to consider this top notch steel armour!
