"This thick quilted gambeson crafted from thick cotton can be adjusted with lacing on the front and shoulder. The interior of the gambeson is lined with cotton felt. As this gambeson is crafted from organic material, it will breathe better than other poly-fill gambesons on the market. A thick, padded jacket common to medieval and renaissance warriors, the gambeson was a protective layer beneath chain or plate armor-it served both as a shock-absorbing layer and chafe protection for its wearer. Poorer combatants and lightly-armored archers and skirmishers might wear only the gambeson as their major piece of the body armor."
