[@shanetaylor761]

It's funny I always knew armor takes Forever to put on. What this really taught me which I wasn't expecting is just how hot it must be to be in armor.

[@robinswords]

I've usually soaked through my arming doublet by the time I get out of it.

[@Specter_1125]

If you have someone to help, and have practiced it, you can get it on in less than 5 minutes.

[@plasmakatana8291]

My manager got married in his custom-made armor. It was awesome, but quite taxing.

[@babybug6462]

I dressed up as Joan of Arc for Halloween in a full suit of armor. It is heavy and your hair snags

bro can you help me put my breastplate on

[@torin6669]

this is why my dnd character sleeps in full plate to get that good AC overnight

[@gwynbleidd1917]

Your character wouldn't get much sleep, as its very hot in full plate armor when it's hot out, and it's very cold in it when its cold out. Big plates of metal are incredible heat conductors so they react to ambient temperature. I'd doubt anyone could actually get a full night's sleep in it

[@kylefratini2833]

It's interesting that you don't have a back plate for your torso. Do you plan on getting one?

[@robinswords]

Yeah, a full cuirass is far more exacting in fit to work right. It's a more involved endeavour to get a usable one. (And way more expensive)

[@Rodster3000]

This guy looks like Superman 😃 specifically Tyler Hoechlin

Nah he's dripping 🔥🔥

[@carlll6101]

Damn... I din't know how much I miss armored fighting and bohurt until I seen this.

[@Ivel.M]

Bro emoted at the end

[@terrorbilly3367]

fun fact, squires could help in donning of the armor but squires weren't servant primarely more like companions who also got to fight, pages were primarly servants that would help with doning the armor checking the quality and all of that

[@horriblemonkey3065]

I showed this video to some of my DnD Buddies and they said: "Ah, so that's why you need a squire." "Envy." "From silly to killy." And: "I bet just when it was all put on, that's when he needs to go to the loo." Nice timelapse, me like :)

[@Joe-my6go]

Bro has all the hose on him now

[@alexgriffin2732]

I think it's funny that girlfriends always end up as defacto Squires 😂

How knights don armour b4 dying in 5min on battlefield:

[@ediblemussel4115]

Uhm, achtually 🤓 Knights were worth more being kept alive and ransomed. So, whenever possible, the enemy would try to refrain from killing knights, unlike with mere normal soldiers or levies.

Think you need some longer maille bro. The royal codpiece is hanging out

Out of curiosity, how much time was this non-sped-up?

[@JohnDoe-ek9ng]

HUZZAH, a man of quality who dons his plate in the English fashion! Jolly good show sir, I commend you.

Oh shoot, now I gotta make one of these. I just modified my armor to be much more comfortable too!

People, men, women and everything in between, may I have your attention for just a shortest while. Learn from this wise man of many blades, get yourself a partner who enjoys helping you out with your shenaniganary, however dumb it might be. It is truly a priceless treasure

[@biganimetiddies9477]

Real question. How did they go to the bathroom in that?

[@robinswords]

I'm cheating a bit here with modern leggings, but by this period they'd be wearing joined hose. So you'd just have to unlace the codpiece to take a leak. Beyond that, best to have settled that business beforehand.

[@alexanderren1097]

You misspelled “dumb question” Seriously though, how do fire fighters go to the bathroom? How do modern soldiers go to the bathroom? How do YOU go to the bathroom after you’ve put on a bunch of layers, snowsuit, and boots to go snowboarding?!

[@oddursigurdsson9637]

@@alexanderren1097 Adult diaper sales skyrocket in wartimes. The army buys a lot of them, especially for convoy people who stay in vehicles a lot. You are not stopping a 50km long convoy for a piss

[@eezokk]

The lack of groin protection... Is concerning

[@murdockpt]

something about how long it takes, how hard it is to put on, and how much help is needed would really dishearten me, rather than embolden...

[@Professionalpacker]

Oh wow you got the whole suit

[@vihuynhquang5204]

He forgot the gambesons and mail leggings

[@markberlanga6375]

What period is that suit of armor? Because you have no c belt and attach the legs straight to the sublet but your wearing a haubreck of chain rather than voiders. Do you run the straps for the arms and paldrons through the chain?

[@robinswords]

I'm aiming for mid to late 15th century. This suit is a budget build, so I'm gradually tweaking it towards being progressively more accurate as funding permits upgrades. My next goal is to get a full cuirass so I can trade the hauberk for voiders.

[@MadeOfAwesomenessGuy]

Where did you get your arming jacket?

[@nut4663]

Where do you get armor like this with all the strings for attaching the armor?

Will you please do this with a timer so we can see how long it takes?

[@TheAnikasis]

This is why knights need a squire.

[@TheRealMrMan]

I wish there was a real life Catarina armor set from dark souls so I can see you wear it

[@EyBossPusi]

Id still prefer the long chainmail and gambeson underneath it.

[@potatojuice5124]

Where’s your squire, man?

[@Ever_green2021]

Realy cool.

[@swiftblade862]

I'll take matt Easton's advice and adventure with just a helmet and a brigandine or plate cuirass for armor

That's what the squires are for 👉👉

[@benjaminkhoury4250]

​@@robinswords so squires are basically the pit crew for their knights

[@Very_Mean_Soup]

Why were medieval belts so long?

[@salroun72]

So out of curiosity, what is your base layer called? Like I know it’s “shirt pants and shoes” but like what are they ever called or am I over thinking it?

[@robinswords]

Arming doublet and hose (or yoga pants in my case...)

[@ruandupreez3802]

Is this at Les Invalides?

[@LoneWolfNick]

I'm probably way too late to the party but I have to ask, is this late 13th century armour?

[@LeanedBackBry]

Imaging dudes back in the day fuckin lmao “nah we can’t I don’t have an hour to Don my armor afterwards”

[@arnijulian6241]

Why I prefer Brigandine & jack chain as it takes fraction of the time to don & you don't need a squire. Full plate is nice but try putting it on if jumped in the night. I'd rather less armour that is always at hand & why shields are so much better then people give them credit as even naked it is perfectly viable instance action armour. If you can't slap it on in under a minute on your lonesome, then I don't like it.

[@dundundada]

Is it still called full plate if the back of your legs are exposed?

[@DuchessRococoPuff]

How long did this actually take to put on? Without the time lapse I mean?

[@robinswords]

About twenty minutes

[@DragunovSniperElite]

historically incorrect. by the time of sallets, shoulder protection should be pauldrons, not spaulders with roundels

[@naphackDT]

Sir, your lack of a second squire severely hampers these efforts.

[@dehydration3651]

Now do it with a full plate

[@MrRedman1998]

so how many minutes did it take?

Would it be possible to put this armor on on your own?

[@robinswords]

I can weasel my way into most of it, but not all of it.

[@joeysonofander7479]

Can you wear glasses beneath that helmet?

[@robinswords]

No room. The visor rests pretty close to the eyes to maximize visibility.

[@brickfoodies]

Nights: Medieval plate armor is the best armor in the world! Wannna fight? Wait wait let me suit up first no wait wait nooooo…….not fair You have to let me suit up first so I can crush you.

[@Ryanfunk080]

Is there a reason you don’t have gambeson pant legs? Wouldn’t you need padding there too?

[@robinswords]

I'm wearing an arming doublet which is unpadded. It's stout to help with supporting the armor and prevent chaffing, but offers no actual padded protection. With enough solid plate coverage, padding becomes largely unnecessary. Especially complex armors are actually hindered if you try to pad them out as their articulations have such tight tolerances to the body underneath.

[@dkb115]

Great, now go full plate.

Ummm what would happen if they really needed to pee or poo when dressed in all that armour?

[@DaddyVeo1911]

Nah, Imma just put on padded cloth armor and jackchain, frak all that.

[@dracotitanfall]

Why do you need full chainmail for your torso when most of it is going to be covered by armour? Isn't the historic trend to use one of those padded jackets that are only chainmail in the exposed areas?

[@robinswords]

I only have a breastplate and not a full cuirass, thereby prompting the full hauberk. I'd use mail voiders if I got a cuirass as there'd be no point to hauling the extra weight then.

[@randomprotogendude748]

Its extra armour, and yes it was a very historical thing to do to put a plate breast piece on chainmail

[@axel.1358]

No crotch armor? I understand the need for mobility, but at least something hanging/wrapping under I mean come on... I can only imagine the amount of cheap shots way back when 🤢

[@robinswords]

The hauberk should extend further down. I've been meaning to add to it.

[@randomprotogendude748]

Also knights were also on horses, making the crotch impossible to hit unless your 8 feet tall.
