Overview
Gambeson with Removable Laced Arms - Natural - Deepeeka
This modifiable Gambeson has laced-on full length sleeves; un-lacing them gives you the option of changing the gambeson into a padded vest. The shell is constructed from durable canvas and its interior is well-padded with poly-fill. Leather cord lacing at the collar secures it into place after donning.
This type of historically accurate gambeson has sealed sides and is more difficult to don than a jacket as it needs to go directly over the head to don it and remove it - If in any doubt about your size we recommend ordering the next larger size.

Q&A
Questions from the community
Q What is this gambeson made of? Common Question
The shell is a durable cotton canvas, quilted in vertical channels over an interior fill of poly-fill padding. This gives the body and sleeves an even, supportive layer of padding typical of a well-made arming garment.
Q Can the sleeves be removed? Common Question
Yes. The sleeves lace on at the shoulder, so un-lacing them turns the full gambeson into a padded vest. This lets you wear it as a full-sleeve garment or strip it down depending on the armor or activity.
Q How do you put this on and close it? Common Question
It has sealed sides, so it goes on and off over the head rather than opening like a jacket. A leather cord laces up the collar in an X pattern to secure the neckline once it's on.
Q What sizes does this come in, and how should I choose? Common Question
It's offered in Small through XXL. Small measures 40'' chest circumference by 35'' in length, Large measures 47'' chest by 37'' length, and XXL measures 52'' chest by 41 1/2'' length, all approximate. Because it's a pullover design with sealed sides, size up if you're between sizes.
Q Is this meant to be worn under armor, or on its own? Common Question
This is an armor-grade gambeson, built with the padding and quilted construction meant to sit under plate or maille. Removing the sleeves also lets it work as a standalone padded vest for lighter wear.
Q What does the quilting and collar look like? Common Question
The torso and sleeves have vertical channel quilting running the full length of the garment, giving even padding coverage. It has a stand-up collar with dark cord lacing at the front in an X pattern, and matching lacing at the shoulder seams where the sleeves attach.
Q How long is the garment, and does it allow for movement? Common Question
It falls to roughly mid-thigh length with a center front slit at the hem, which helps with leg movement while walking, sitting, or fighting in it.
Q How should I clean and care for this gambeson? Common Question
Since it's cotton canvas with a poly-fill interior, spot clean it rather than fully soaking it, and let it air dry completely before storing. Keep it in a dry space to prevent mildew or odor from building up in the padding.
