Product description
This cuirass is very lightweight and is made of leather and steel. The cuirass protect the chest and ribs during battles. A large steel ring on the back connects all straps that are attached to the breastplate and which you can use to fasten it and adjust it to size. This design ensures that the breastplate is comfortable and flexible to wear. The breastplate is easy to take off, because the two straps over the shoulders are fastened with pins at the front. This armor looks beautiful, yet is very easy to use and perfect for LARP battles.
