  • A video shoving how to dress in and wear armor (harness) from late 14th century. The harness is a detailed reconstruction based on the effigy of the Black Prince (1330-1376) in the Canterbury Cathedral, other relevant effigies, paintings in 14th century manuscripts and late 14th century armour displayed in The Royal Armories in Leeds. For more info about this harnes also see the following videos:

    Ironically, You can actually move pretty well inside a suit of armour, hollywood depicts a suit of armour as heavy, bulky, hard to move, while in reality it was made and modified to benefit as much movement as possible without losing the protection part, so yes you can roll in a suit of armour, Dark souls was right.

The problem I have with this video is he has a chainmail shirt, a plate chestplate, a chainmail hood. The coat ontop, and then the helmets chainmail. Armour isn't exactly heavy but damn all that chainmail still on your shoulders is like- it doesn't quite feel necessary. I also realize his chainmail shirt I don't think I saw a belt to hold the weight on his stomach. Sure he had the "belt" on the coat. But that belt was held by a pin and seemed a lil loose. It's not tight to his body so also the weight of that chainmail shirt is on his shoulders.

      Look at how many buckles are in the suit. what you're saying is so true but at that time it was buckles that were amazing. they're secure like knots, fast to use, and sturdy. they did actually have buttons at that time but I believe they were cloth buttons. but in more modern times better buttons and zippers were the replacement of the many buckle you'd see in their clothing. that and also just two strings to tie XD

      If by "men" you mean a few high-ranking knights who *could afford* a body armor (most Medieval era soldiers had no armor and would be lucky to have stolen a chainmail armor from a killed knight) and the few times they actually went into war, while spending 99% of their adult lives not wearing them, then sure. Also only the nobility and their hired mercenaries went to war back then. The by far most common class of people during the feudal era were peasants who grew crops, tended sheep and chopped timber for their landlords. And no, Medieval peasants never participated in wars.
      Last of all. Medieval nobility also had personal assistants helping them getting dressed up in armor before a battle. Those were called a squire.
      Great comparison you're making there.

    Any knight worth his salt wore his full kit often, so he was fighting fit. His armour was usually made to fit, and he could move well. It was tiring work, so even the fit could only fight at full throttle for so long. Age was between 15 and 35, above that increasingly rare and at the back taking their time. Being wealthy they could afford a better diet, and had time to train.
    Archers were effective against horse at long range, and less well armoured, but not so much against a knight. Enough so that at least in The British Isles pitch battles were fought on foot. Though at short range, 30m and multi hits from group fire, then knights couldn't push through that as neither their armour nor shields could take that punishment.
    Tactics and etiquette was so there was a good chance to survive a battle. High risk, high reward, but not suicide. Really depended on your team support as getting isolated was dangerous as the lesser troop mob could overwhelm the advantage knights had.
    Being a knight was a rich man's game as the kit cost a bomb.

    Thank you for creating this video to help educate those of us that are inquisitive and for taking the time to show the detail of how the layers are worn. Whenever I watch films I'm always very skeptical of armor that I see portrayed, as it almost invariably seems too light and of poor construction. I don't understand why in this time when we have access to so much information at our fingertips that we still have so many historically inaccurate portrayals in film today.

      How expensive would it be to ask welders of the modern age to make this for your Halloween costume? And how far in advance would you have to order them?

      MonguinAssassin if you’re looking purely for decorative and not functional in the slightest, for a suit looking like this I’d estimate that you could maybe find pieces of a harness for between hundreds to thousands of dollars, depending on what all you get a what gauge steel it is, how big the piece is, etc. This manner in purchasing a costume obviously will not be custom fit, but if you’re hurting for money and time would be a very viable way of finding a semi suitable suit.
      Another option is custom ordering a full harness. Depending on the pieces and if you spread out your order to multiple blacksmiths, from today (September 9) you MIGHT be able to put together a full plate harness by Halloween. This way will be super expensive, somewhere between the thousands to ten thousands, depending again on what all you get and if it’s functional or not. Functionality will cost more, but will be more realistic.
      My best advice is just to seriously look around on EBay or Amazon for cheaper, less flashy stuff to save a few bucks and then look at different armory websites (there are loads) for the flashier bits (breast/back plate, helmet, greaves, etc) and make a decision from there
