Protection and Mobility
The brigandine construction uses many long overlapping plates riveted to a strong fabric base. As a result, your legs remain protected from all sides while allowing natural movement for running, grappling, and kneeling. In addition, the overlapping plates absorb strikes more effectively, helping them “hold the punch” in mass battles.
Reinforced Knee Design
The segment knee cops are reinforced with side petals and floating plates above and below. Therefore, they cover the common weak spots between thigh, knee, and shin armor. The riveted straps also ensure the knees stay in place even under pressure. Moreover, the greaves extend coverage down to the ankle bones with extra side plates.
Durability and Practicality
Each plate is painted black to protect against rust, while the dual-layer base (canvas inside, wool outside) makes the set both durable and historically inspired. Furthermore, leather straps allow for quick adjustments, and the entire set folds easily for transport. As a result, these brigandine legs are practical for both tournaments and training.

Cant wait to put them to use look and fit perfectly
Huge thanks @medieval_extreme for amazing quality and customer’s service. Now I have all my swords at one place at last!
P.S. okay, not all 😬😬😯
Love the helmet, sturdy but not too heavy. I haven’t used it yet but I definitely feel well protected when wearing it. I had been looking for a helmet with a simple design like this one, I looked at all the other major Buhurt sites and just so happened to see this pop up on Medieval Extreme. It was the right price with availability. It even shipped within two weeks of ordering it.
Fantastic bit of kit and wonderfully made. Arrived in time for IMCF too
Sword is damn nice
Thank you SO much for my incredible helmet. It’s beautiful!!
