Cuisses, “Royal Windrunner”
 
     Based on 15th-century Italian artifacts (originally found in Churburg), these cuisses are for fighters that desire another option for articulated leg armor; one that possesses a balance of mobility and protection vs weight, while still retaining a functional and appealing form. Although based on Milanese artifacts, this style of cuisse was popular all over Europe during the mid to late 15th century - as the Milanese dominance of the armor export market expanded - and is already suitable for/or can be adjusted to fit many different 15th century kits from other areas.
The simplistic beauty of the cuisse design includes strengthened stop-ribs and rolled edges, which helps to provide additional protection for the front and sides for your sensitive nether-regions, while increasing overall durability and adding to the unique look of the armor. At the same time, the back of your upper-legs will be generously protected by the articulated steel plates that wrap around three-quarters of your thigh.
The functionally sized fan-plates on the poleyns ensure a more-than-sufficient degree of protection for your knees, even giving partial-protection to the back of the knee due to their curvature, while allowing for greater mobility due to being smaller, lighter and less prone to becoming entangled.
Three articulated lames connect and support the poleyns and demi-greaves for superior mobility and protection, a serious advantage for those that want to compete at the highest levels.
A central ridge that runs the length of the front of both the poleyns and demi-greaves increases the durability and functionality of the armor, as well as adds to its unique look, and appeal.
Made using high-quality, tempered spring-steel to withstand the brutal, full-metal adventures of historic medieval battles and buhurt sport, “Royal Windrunner” cuisses are suitable for use in both HMB and IMCF battle leagues, and are crafted anatomically to your custom measurements - which further enhances the armor's protective capabilities, helping to ensure your personal longevity and enjoyment of the sport.
