Bazuband

Bazuband

Epic Armoury’s Polished Steel Bazuband comes in pairs. They are an elegant piece of armor designed to protect your forearms. The Bazuband is a compromise between the discomfort of gauntlets and the mobility of demi-gauntlets, providing comfort and the freedom of movement you desire. Paired with your own leather glove, these robust steel plates efficiently protect the back of your hand, thumb, and underarm while strong chainmail connects the plates to ensure unbridled but protected movement.

The Bazuband is fully usable with other Epic Armoury metal products, giving you the freedom to customize your character’s costume. Made of 1 mm thick mild steel and full grain vegetable tanned leather straps and fittings, this armor piece is built to withstand the abuse of a LARP or reenactment with regular leather and metal armor care.
