Also called \u003ci\u003ea Kite Shield\u003c\/i\u003e , this 115cm long shield is rounded at the top and tapers towards the bottom, perfect for both mounted cavalry and field soldiers. This live action role-playing (LARP) safe shield is carved from EVA foam and coated with a layer of durable latex, and is designed to look like real wooden slats adorned with a strip of real leather. There is a crest on the front, as would have been common during the time of the First Crusade.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Norman shield has been hand-painted with a blue and white tribal design, faded and aged for the battlefield. Place this shield on your left or right arm thanks to the six adjustable leather arms on the back. This is a great alternative to the punch grip, which is specifically used to compensate for the unique shape of the kite shield. Keep your shield in excellent condition with regular latex maintenance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e A piece of Norman warfare\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"desc-list\"\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e This shield is considered a \" \u003ci\u003ecomet shield\u003c\/i\u003e \"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e The round-headed kite shield was popular in Europe during the 16th century and then spread to the Middle East due to the First Crusade.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e The shape of this shield would have been ideal for mounted cavalry to protect their left leg, as well as their shoulder and torso.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e Associated with the Normans, who were the first to widely use this style of shield\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e Made of laminated wood, stretched animal skin and iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n \u003cli\u003eThe shield boss, the round, convex piece of material in the center of the shield, was used to deflect blows\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e Quality\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"desc-list\"\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e Strong latex coating over hard EVA foam, which does not flex in combat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e Made of durable, closed-cell foam that won't shred\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e The handle is made of EVA foam and two adjustable leather straps for a firm grip.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e High security, approved by major organizations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e This product is handmade and painted by hand and is therefore unique.

For this purpose, we recommend using maintenance silicone, which can be purchased separately in the LARP Accessories section. Epic Armory Maintenance Silicone is an easy-to-use spray that is 100% pure and acid-free, making it safe to apply. We recommend using Maintenance Silicone regularly. It maintains the flexibility of the latex layer and prevents it from drying out, keeping the product resistant to wear and tear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Store your latex shield in a cool, dry environment. Use a simple sheet or towel to prevent it from touching a plastic or rubber surface to prevent your shield from sticking to other products.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"anexo\"\u003e At \u003cstrong\u003eTienda Medieval,\u003c\/strong\u003e we have thousands of functional medieval and reenactment products.
