Dress Of The Medieval Warrior

All of us at the time of the history lesson I've learned about the Crusades. But I just fell asleep, or if it is not a play, here is a brief overview. Crusade in 1291, a series of ad 1096 from the Middle East was a military expedition. Because they believe in the Holy Land of the Israelites, they were sonee of unbelievers, mainly Muslims, were launched.

The main purpose of the city of Jerusalem, and took from the Muslims. Now you have a quick lesson about the Crusades, and the Holy Land cress that we fight for the long voyage to get to the armor of the Crusader knights. Although there dressed as a soldier for a wide variety of the main things was the standard chainmail armor, battle dress. Typically, the majority of the full-length / full sleeves out to make chainmail / flat ring combinations. The most powerful form available and chainmail, as well as most of the protection it provides.

Chainmail also typically lighter than plate armor, and provide freedom of movement is larger. I also typically wear chainmail leggings is to have the same material. often wore a surcoat over chainmail. This is usually in the black and white or color on the front of a cross embroidered on it was the Crusades. During the trip, was wearing a cape, as well as the signature is also tedious for the cross it. The last main item was that quite common for many soldiers was the crusader helmet and the sugar loaf helmet.

Crusader medieval helmets were signified by the flat top and crusader cross, often times embossed on with brass, on the front of the helmet going down the center. All others as a piece of cloth, leather, chainmail probably only "armor" the soldiers were dressed item. Sometimes, chainmail coif (or hood) was wearing a helmet instead.
