Armor is a defensive piece of body equipment, used to protect a fighter's body for the most part from enemy blows and other damage. Armor has evolved along with technology, particularly metallurgy. They became increasingly complex over the course of history, covering the entire body with metal plates by the end of the Middle Ages. But improvements in firearms made them partly obsolete. In Europe, the Renaissance reserved them for parades and tournaments, with the exception of cuirassiers' breastplates and helmets.

A helmet is a piece of armor or personal protective equipment designed to protect the head against the consequences of head trauma. Helmets are often fitted with a strap to prevent the helmet from falling off; jugular (the strap passes under the chin) or chin strap (the strap passes over the tip of the chin).
The heaume is a cavalry helmet emblematic of chivalry and associated with Templar or Teutonic knights in popular culture, protecting the whole head.

The invention of chain mail is attributed to the Celts, in 300 BC and up to the XIVᵗʰ century was the main armor of common soldiers. The most important function of chainmail was to protect against the opponent's sharp weapons, and it was made specifically for each part of the body it was intended to cover. As the world of armor changed, chainmail began to have a secondary, but no less important role in defense, until by the XVᵗʰ century it was used strictly to be worn underneath armor and in the most vulnerable areas such as the neck, knees and joints. The cotte offered a series of advantages: it was flexible, relatively easy to make and repair, and didn't cost a lot of money.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent site for lovers of the Middle Ages. I bought a replica bassinet helmet from the 100 years war which made one happy. Very fast 72-hour delivery. The downside in my case is the delivery by UPS which is a real disaster in my region. The deliveryman never comes to the house and throws everything in a relay point, in my case a relay point more than 3 kms from my house. Despite several complaints to UPS Reims, the mediocre service continues... It would be good if Terressens offered another delivery service, because for me it's prohibitive for a future order. |
