NauticalMart Armor Gothic Cuirass With Tassets - Metallic - One Size Surprisingly, armour can be pleasing to the eye and still be useful and defensive. Take, for example, the Gothic Cuirass with Tassets, which provides impressive protection for the core and legs while featuring a subtle yet attractive gothic style. This cuirass comes as a matched set, meaning that it includes both a breastplate and a back plate that are matched together. Both the breast plate and the back plate are made from 18 gauge steel that features a shiny metal finish that makes the armour all but gleam in the light. The breastplate features a multi-layered look with embossed edges, creating what appears to be a successive layering of plates that extends down from the chest and shoulders, gradually 'stacking' plate over plate until the waist, where the breastplate extends down over the thighs in the form of two mildly articulated tassets. Attached to the shoulders and sides of the breast and back plates are leather straps and buckles that are designed to secure the armor in place. Attached to the breastplate and the back plate are also buckles that can be secured to a gorget when worn (gorget is not included). Please note that the tassets are not removable from the armour. Sizing: Breastplate: 32 inches long by 18 inches wide Back Plate: 23 inches long by 18 inches wide
