Viking Reenactment Kit
Our Viking Re-enactment section features historical replicas from brands such as GDFB, Marshal Historical and Windlass Steelcrafts and provide a good balance between authenticity and affordability. Viking Re-enactment battles are known for their brutal clashes of steel and the protective standards of the kit reflect this. Helmets are usually required to be a minimum of 18 gauge steel, with people favouring the thicker 14 and 16 gauge options available in this section. On these pages you will find a range of Viking weaponry, armour, clothing and jewellery that is approved for Battlefield Re-enactment or Living History by re-enactment societies around the world.

Viking Greaves (Shinguards)
Our Viking splint greaves are based on an excavated pair of greaves from Valsgärde in Sweden. They belonged to a Vendel era Germanic warrior and date from the 7th century. They are constructed from strips of 2mm steel that are held together with leather straps and are great for protecting the lower legs during combat. Sold as a pair.

10th C Viking Varangian Helmet Rivetted
Our reproduction is directly inspired by an original found in a 10th-century Slavic-Varangian settlement named Gnezdovo or Gnyozdovo near Smolensk in modern-day Russia. Many typical Scandinavian artefacts have been found simultaneously with this helmet, making it a good choice for anyone wanting to reenact an eastern Viking / Varangian / Russ / Slav character. However, this helmet may not be suitable if you’re depicting a Western Viking raiding England.

This helmet is HANDMADE from 1.6 mm (16-gauge) mild steel and lined with an adjustable genuine leather liner. A riveted mail aventail hangs from it, protecting the lower part of the face. An approximate circumference of 68 cm (without liner) (65 cm with liner) allows it to fit most head circumferences from about 58cm to 61-62cm, depending on the shape of the wearer’s head. (If you desire to wear an additional padded cap, then measure your head circumference while wearing it). A genuine leather chin strap, with a solid brass buckle, keeps it in place battle after battle. It has a height of about 25.5 cm (without aventail), the inner width at ear level is about 21 cm, and the inner depth from front to back at eye level measures about 24.5 cm.
Note: This product is carefully coated with a layer of oil when packaged that acts as a temporary (protective) layer against corrosion (rust), which can easily be wiped off using any oil remover or even a dry cloth.
