Medieval Knights 18G Gauntlets - TOPHATTER'S ARMORY DEALS

Historically, gauntlets were used by soldiers and knights. It was considered an important piece of armor, since the hands and arms were particularly vulnerable in hand-to-hand combat. These gauntlets are 18g plate armor with a polished finish. Each section has been riveted together for securing the plates but leaving optimal mobility. They cover the back of the fingers, hands, and most of the forearm. Both hands fit into black suede gloves that come in size large. They feature patches of red leather that has been hand sewn to the top of the gloves on each figure. These gloves are great for re-enactments with light sparring or finishing off a costume.
