Leather Cuirass with Tassets – Authentic Leather Armor
The Leather Cuirass with Tassets is crafted from high quality upper leather and split leather which ensure the durability and comfort. Medieval cuirass is designed to provide full 360 degree protection to cuirassier with a breastplate, backplate and tassets. In 1550, cuirass breastplates had a central ridge called the tapul which had a projecting point near its center. Over time, the tapul moved lower on the breastplate and the plate’s profile came to resemble a pea pod. This type of cuirass was known as the peascod cuirass. However, leather armor worn under metal plates provided extra protection. Cuirasses were originally made of thick leather and were worn by Roman officers. Cuirasses were made of bronze in Homeric and Hellenistic times. Later, cuirasses were made of steel and were the forerunner to body armor that deflects bullets. During the English Civil War (1642–1651), only the wealthiest and physically strongest men could afford cuirasses.
