This style of gambeson has strap-and-buckle front closures and is crafted in heavy-duty padded canvas, it has good blow-absorbing properties when worn separately and provides superior protection from cuts when worn under mail or plate. This gambeson provides a good level of protection but is not as well padded as the GDFB equivalent. The armpits are open for extra manoeuvrability.
