❓ WILL THIS FIT ME?
|
What if I am between sizes? Always size up. Our armor is designed with adjustable straps and buckles, so a slightly larger size can be tightened. Sizing down risks restricted movement and discomfort. |
|
Do you offer custom sizing? Yes — all our armor is handcrafted and made to order. Simply send us your exact measurements via our contact form and we will craft a piece tailored precisely to you, at no extra charge for standard custom sizing. |
|
Can I mix sizes across pieces? Absolutely. You may need a Large breastplate but a Medium helmet. Each piece is sized independently, so feel free to mix and match based on your individual measurements. |
|
What about sizing for women's armor? We offer dedicated women's armor sizing. Please contact us with your bust, waist, hip, and height measurements for a custom fit recommendation. |
