The Lord of the Rings - High King Leather Shoulder Armour
This item is inspired by Aragorn’s Shoulder Armour from The Return of the King and is NOT an official replica.
Made of an extra thick layer of heavy leather, the shoulder armour is covered by metal plates decorated with wing-like insignias. This shoulder armour is as flexible as it is noble. You can buckle on the upper arm guards, which are made of two layers of leather covered in matching steel plates or wear the shoulder plates alone. Leather straps and metal buckles will also fasten our noble shoulder armour to other pieces of armour or garb.
Perfect for LARP!
