The first volume of the Yeoman’s Guides booklet series, Basic Leather Armor will help you start crafting armor right away. It covers all of the essential skill you need to make and customize leather armor for medieval combat. You’ll use some of the techniques, like assembling straps and buckles, when you prepare steel or plastic armor for field use.
If that isn’t enough for you, we’ve also included a pattern and instructions for making a leather dog-collar gorget. As you work through this project, you’ll practice most of the skills taught in the preceding pages.
From buying leather, to tracing patterns, to stitching seams, to adding decoration, The Yeoman’s Guide to Basic Leather Armor is perfect for novice fighters, and those who care for them.
