Based on late 15th and early 16th century Turkish mamluk armor, our Istanbul Leggings emulate the maille and plate (alternatively "plated mail" or "splinted mail") style that was primarily in use at the time in Middle Eastern heavy cavalry units. It is composed of steel plates woven together with rings to form a unified piece, then fastened with belts or laces.

By the late 16th century, the German city of Nuremberg was a known capital of armor production, where they specialized in high-quality infantry armors of simple but bold design. These armors were typically painted black to protect against corrosion, with contrasting bright steel bands. Infantry harness of this type was also typically of a "half-armor" style, with upper thigh protection but without greaves — which lends itself naturally to armor capris! ;)

Our Chausses leggings are based on 12th century maille (colloquially, chainmail) leg defenses. Not many tangible examples of armor from this time still survives, but this design is based off of manuscript illustrations of the period that featured an open back tied to the leg, rather than the "stocking" variation that is commonly seen. A layer of linked chain rings was layered over a leather backing, then likely fastened to a belt around the waist to stay suspended.

Our Sackville leggings are based on the field garniture of Thomas Sackville, 1st Earl of Dorset. A beautiful armor currently part of The Wallace Collection, it bears significant resemblance to the armor of Sir James Scudamore but for its blued steel: both armors were crafted in the Greenwich Royal Armories under the supervision of master armorer Jacob Halder.
Thomas Sackville himself was a man of somewhat questionable politics: he was a great advocate of "sumptuary laws," which is to say laws that only permitted fancy people to wear fancy things (for example, he dictated that only soldiers holding the rank of colonel or above should be permitted to wear silk and velvet). I get a special kick out of adapting his armor for all of us plebeians.

Our Maximillian design is named after the eponymous style of armor popular in early 16th century Germany (which was, in turn, named for the Emperor Maximillian I). It was a transitional style between 15th century armors, which were typically plainer and worn with a surcoat, and the more ornate decoration of the Renaissance. The extensive parallel fluting, signature of this style, aided in the deflection of blows as well as added structural strength to the plates of the armor. Interestingly, fluting was usually applied all over the harness except for the greaves.

Our Augsburg leggings are not based on a specific suit of armor, but rather inspired by the Gothic style of plate armor popularized in the 15th century Holy Roman Empire. During this period, centers of armor production included Nuremburg, Landshut, and Augsburg — guess where we got our name? This German style was characterized by fluted metal, which aids in the deflection of crushing blows and also looks really snazzy. 😮

Our Henry VIII leggings are based on the field armor of the notorious king of England, a piece currently on view at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York. This intricately designed suit was crafted for the king late in his life (what I like to call his “fat Elvis” period), which he wore into battle during his last military campaign despite his infirmities at the time. But you can get all of the artistry without any of the gout in our take on this beautiful armor. 😉
