About Our Medieval Full Body Armor – Retro Handicraft

Forged with Honor, Built for Legends

At Retro Handicraft, we pride ourselves on creating some of the finest handcrafted medieval full body armor available today. Every armor set we make reflects the strength, elegance, and historical legacy of the Middle Ages. Our artisans follow authentic medieval techniques to forge armor inspired by European knights, crusaders, vikings, renaissance soldiers, and legendary warriors. Each piece is shaped, hammered, fitted, and finished with a dedication to craftsmanship that gives our armor its distinctive character and long-lasting durability.

Our medieval full body armor is built to offer complete protection from head to toe, just like the traditional suits worn by real knights. The set includes a great helm or visor helmet designed to safeguard the head and face, a gorget to guard the neck, a solid breastplate and backplate for torso protection, as well as beautifully shaped pauldrons that cover the shoulders. The arm harness is fully articulated to allow smooth movement during reenactments or performances, and the gauntlets provide a powerful grip while completing the classic armored look. For the lower body, faulds and tassets protect the waist and hips, while cuisses and poleyns shield the thighs and knees. The armor continues down with greaves and sabatons, ensuring the legs and feet are fully protected in true medieval fashion.

Each armor set is made using high-quality steel, genuine leather straps, brass fittings, and reinforced riveted construction to provide both authenticity and durability. Whether you choose a mirror-polished finish or a battle-worn matte texture, every surface is carefully treated to withstand wear and resist rust. Our armor is fully adjustable, allowing it to be worn comfortably for extended periods during LARP battles, SCA combat, medieval festivals, renaissance fairs, cosplay events, theatre performances, film productions, and historical reenactments. The inner padding and secure buckles offer a custom fit while maintaining the powerful presence that medieval armor is known for.

Retro Handicraft serves collectors, performers, and enthusiasts who appreciate real medieval craftsmanship. Many customers use our full body armor as a display piece in homes, castles, hotels, museums, and themed spaces, while others wear it proudly on the battlefield or stage. Each suit is not only a functional piece of protective gear but also a work of art that captures the spirit of medieval warfare and the bravery of knights who once wore similar armor into real combat.

What sets Retro Handicraft apart is our commitment to authenticity and quality. Every suit of armor we produce is entirely handmade, carefully tested, and built with the same passion that once drove medieval blacksmiths. Our goal is to preserve the charm of ancient craftsmanship while offering modern customers a chance to experience the strength, style, and legacy of true medieval armor. Whether you are preparing for a roleplay event, building a historical collection, recreating a knight’s persona, or decorating your space with a powerful medieval centerpiece, our full body armor delivers unmatched character and craftsmanship.
