The Middle Ages bracers can be referred to as a conterminous element merging safeguard and adornment functions. Wearing them on the battlefield provides warriors fighting at close quarters with an unburdensome and reliable instrument to redirect enemy blows and protect one of the most important joints for the half-sword – the wrist. However, arranging security for carpus one has incentives to keep it as flexible and as free for the movements as possible. So it is usually a combination of arm bracers and gauntlets that ensures protection for the wrist and thus should be well thought through and perfectly fit together. ArmStreet is known for package proposal and “find everything you need for the battle in one place” approach, so you’ll definitely find matching gauntlets (and all the other armor elements) in our medieval bracers store.

In the rare but still occurring peaceful life of a common person in the Middle Ages, wrist bracers can be used in various cases. They can be used as a status symbol for a noble person – richly decorated with embossing at leather parts, complimentary pattern etching at the brass accents, and cast buckles. A seamstress can use a cute ornate bracer made of soft leather to keep needles and pins at hand.

Chose your medieval bracers

We appreciate the freedom of selection, so we created a range of options to satisfy all the possible requests:

• Embossed leather vambraces
• Leather bracers covered with brass plates
• Splinted vambraces (available with Western or Celtic etched motifs)
• Leather bracers reinforced with metal bars from the inside
• Bazubands (plain or with etching)
• Ribbed bazubands
• Elbow cops fitted with matching bracers

However, such an extensive product offering sometimes leads our customers to purchase two or even more sets instead of the intended “I need one pair of reliable bracers, that’s it” – one just can’t resist the combination of experienced craftsmanship, trustworthy engineering solutions, high-quality materials and elegancy of decorative elements.

We use high-quality materials at all stages of production. By default, all metal armor pieces are made of stainless steel (see description of every particular item concerning the thickness of the steel used and other technical details). Thick and viable 100% natural leather lasts for ages under proper care and maintenance. Fittings, buckles, rivets, and other tiny details are always under our undiverted control – positive emotions of satisfied customers are the best motivation to develop new products.
