Gabriel Armoury

Gambesons and doublets.
Gambesons and doublets.

For a man-at-arms wearing a full harness, the quality of the arming doublet worn underneath the armour was almost as important as the quality of the armour itself. The doublet was lightly padded to make the wearing of each part more comfortable. It had also to be carefully designed in order not to interfere with the movements of the wearer and to maintain maximum mobility in combat.

 

The thickness of the padding was obviously much more important on padded jacks and other gambisonned garments worn by ordinary fighters. It was often the main (or only) form of protection they own and it had to be robust. As they were inexpensive, easy to maintain and lightweight, padded jacks were appreciated by both militia and professionals.
