"A warrior who binds his leg harness directly to an unyielding girdle will find his strength sapped before midday." Osric, Keeper of the Hearth & Forge
Rooted in thirteenth-century patternwork, this padded arming belt?or lendenier?serves as the working foundation of any proper panoply. In historical warfare, securing iron chausses or plate leg defences directly to clothing invites severe bruising. This piece solves that grievance through thick canvas cotton quilted with robust internal padding, distributing the downwards drag of armour evenly across the hips and waist during protracted campaigns.
The belt is pierced along its span with reinforced canvas eyelets, fashioned specifically to receive your long arming cords and brass aiglets. Please note that arming cords are not provided, allowing you to lace and personalise your kit to your own specifications. Handcrafted construction means subtle variations in stitchwork and padding density will naturally occur, lending an authentic character to each individual garment.
For proper service in the field, consult the sizing charts to ensure correct overlap beneath your maille or plate. Care for your canvas as you would good arming garments: hand wash solely in cold or lukewarm water, avoid harsh chemicals or bleach, and dry flat away from direct sunlight to preserve the integrity of the cotton fibres. Store clean and dry in your armour chest until the next muster.
