Bracers Squire - Black
BRACERS SQUIRE - BLACK
Item no: 100432
Defiant, Epic Armoury
As a squire, you must wake with the sun to prepare for your training. You are responsible for your master as well as your extra chores, and it’s only after the morning’s water is boiled and you’ve set out your master’s clothing and armour that you are allowed to begin your drills.
What armour you own, a pair of Squire Bracers, is easy enough for you to wear as you practice your sword swings. One day you will be a fearsome knight. For now, you must continue to work hard.
DETAILS
Epic Armoury’s Bracers Squire are sturdy leather armguards designed to protect the forearms during combat. Made from four thick full-grain leather plates fit together using tough leather cords, these bracers have great structural strength to make them last a long time and resist deformation. Comfort is also important, as these bracers feature soft split-leather lining against your skin on the inside.
Secure this gauntlet to your arm by adjusting the leather cord lacing to your desired tightness. The style is timeless and moderate, and is fully compatible with other Epic Armoury leather and metal armours, giving you the freedom to customize your costume.
Available in Black and Brown, and in sizes Small, Medium, and Large.
HISTORY
- Unlike popular belief, arm protection was only called a bracer if it was meant to protect the forearm of an archer
- Forearm protection not intended for an archer would have been called a vambrace or forearm guard

MAINTENANCE
Natural leather products are very durable, but require regular maintenance with leather care products to stay flexible and to increase life-time. Make sure your leather products are kept dry when stored. Let wet leather dry naturally before treating. If frequently wet and dry, increase frequency of maintenance.
CLEANING
Clean by removing dirt with a hard brush, then gently rub on leather soap with a clean, damp cloth until the leather appears clean. Remove soap with a separate damp cloth to wipe away any soap residue and then use a dry cloth to wipe away any remaining water from the leather.
