Product description
These gauntlets are made in the 15th century gothic (german) style. They are richly decorated and provide a stylish knight with good hand protection, while still allowing for excellent finger dexterity. Gothic armor was very popular with 15th century knights in central europe and can be recognised by its acute shapes and intricate fluted decorations, giving it a very elegant, almost fantasy-like appearance. The gauntlets have a steel thickness of 1,2mm, making them suitable for costume and display. The leather inner gloves are stitched to the tips of the gauntlet fingers in a way that allows them to be easily removed or replaced to your liking.
