Additional information
This late 14th Century Gambeson is crafted from sturdy, quilted cotton and filled with cotton felt for interior padding. It is closed on the front with cotton buttons. The use of organic materials to craft this gambeson give it innate improved ventilation properties over gambesons constructed or padded with artificial materials and poly-fill.
This gambeson is handcrafted – sizes will vary slightly. These measurements should be taken as approximations.

Stuart Golden –
fits well! I have owned several gambisons over the years and this one fits the best so far , this the only way to get a better fit for me is to have a custom one made !
Sleeves fit close to the body but not too tight , I still have about 95% movement , padding is adequate but not too thick, very good indeed !
