LARP Gambesons – Lightweight Protection with Authentic Medieval Style
Step into character with confidence in our LARP Gambesons collection — a line of padded jackets designed for protection, comfort, and true medieval appeal. Whether you’re a knight preparing for your next LARP battle, a Renaissance Faire performer, or a cosplay enthusiast building a realistic outfit, these gambesons combine durability and flexibility for long days of adventure.
This collection includes our Cotton Gambesons and Gambeson Jackets with Removable Sleeves, both crafted for comfort, ease of movement, and layered style. Made from high-quality quilted cotton with reinforced stitching, each piece delivers a functional and authentic look that enhances any LARP costume.
Our Cotton Gambesons are designed to be lightweight and breathable — the perfect choice for players who want protective padding without bulk. These thinner gambesons can be worn under leather or plate armour for extra comfort or styled as a standalone outer layer for scouts, guards, and adventurers. The soft quilted cotton construction provides a flexible fit while maintaining the distinctive medieval texture that completes your look. Best of all, they’re machine washable, making them an easy-care essential for busy event schedules.
The Gambeson Jacket with Removable Sleeves adds versatility and structure for players who need adaptable gear. It can be worn as a full-sleeved jacket in colder weather or converted to a sleeveless vest for greater freedom of movement. Featuring magnetic poppers and adjustable buckles, this gambeson is easy to fasten, comfortable to wear, and quick to adjust during costume changes or combat scenes. The reinforced design provides durability for active use while maintaining flexibility for running, fighting, or performing.
Each gambeson is thoughtfully designed for real wear, not just display. The breathable padding helps regulate temperature, while the stitching and closures ensure a secure fit throughout long days on the field. Available in neutral and earthy tones, these pieces coordinate effortlessly with trousers, belts, cloaks, and armour.
Lightweight, practical, and visually striking, our LARP Gambesons are perfect for players who need reliable comfort and authentic medieval style. Built for durability, crafted for ease, and designed to suit every character, they’re the ideal foundation for your next adventure—whether on the battlefield or the faire.
