This is for a complete suit of Standard Samurai inspired leather armor inspired by the Azuchi-Momoyama period.
These suits feature streamlined Sode (Pauldrons), and feature a Do (Cuirass) with larger plates, including a large central plate suitable for custom art to be engraved.
These pieces are individual, unique pieces of wearable art, even before getting into the weeds of what is possible in terms of custom stamping, tooling, engraving. For a truly ephemeral piece please don't hesitate to contact me, and we can conjure up something truly ephemeral, and unique for any potential need. Event, Cosplay, Collectible, Wedding, etc.
Each suit is hand made from top quality hand selected vegetable tanned leather. I use 7-9oz as standard for the armored sections
and I use garment weight for the Kote (Sleeves/hands), Haidate (Thighs), and Suneate (shins)
There are potentially infinite options from color of lace, leather dye, and embellishments.
If you have art that inspires, or a character concept contact me, and we can go from there.
