Product description
This bevor is made in the 15th to 16th century gothic (german) style. It protects the throat and is designed to be worn with a helmet which doesn’t cover the lower face, like a sallet, cabasset or kettle hat. 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 bevor has a steel thickness of 1,6 mm, making it suitable for reenactment battles. Because it is articulated it can be worn with the visor up or down, depending on the situation.
