The gambeson is a key component for the comfort of your outfit, as it distributes the pressure of the armour and prevents chafing from edges and straps. Thanks to the padding in the chainmail gambeson, long events become more bearable, as the shoulders and chest do not bear as much weight. It is very important to choose a good fit so that you can breathe and move freely throughout the event.
It is important to consider three factors when choosing the right torso gambeson. The first factor is thickness; this will affect how hot you get during the event and how easy it is to put the armour on over it. The next factor is the fit; a snug fit is usually perfect for wearing under plate armour, and if you’re wearing a looser outfit, a more relaxed cut is recommended. Finally, it’s important to know what clothes you’ll be wearing; if you wear very thick or bulky clothing, this could be a problem as everything will start to feel tight, causing discomfort and restricting your movement.
