Our 15th-century arming doublet is the perfect garment to wear under your full plate armour. As the middle age proceeded towards its end, more plate armour was available and, it was becoming less needed for the knight to wear heavily padded gambeson, leading to the creation of the arming doublet. It allows all the components of plate armour to be laced on it and function properly together. At the same time, providing enough padding to make wearing the armour more comfortable and act as a great shock absorber.

With comfortable quilted padding sandwiched between two layers of ROBUST CANVAS COTTON, this is a functional arming doublet, unlike its flimsy replicas. Our doublet is provided with many arming points with PURE BRASS aiglets, making the lacing of your armour pieces easier than ever. A detailed size chart is available with the photographs.
