15th Century Steel Gauntlets

15th Century Steel Gauntlets

The design begins with a large front and back plate that securely covers the wrist. Moving up to the fingers, six overlapping plates offer comprehensive finger protection, firmly attached to the main wrist plate with rivets. Leather straps on the underside of these plates allow smooth finger movement. The glove inserts, featuring five small overlapping plates on the thumb, provide additional safeguarding for this crucial digit and can be easily removed from the steel gauntlets.
