Anyone got Byzantine/high medieval?

The Norman helm is pretty boss.

strange that that style of helmet has grown so popular among renactors. As far as I know the only depiction of something vaguely similar is in a obscure manuscript.

It looks cool so people want to wear it, nothing strange about that.

...

yeah but it is such a obscure helmet, I mean, this is the only depiction thath I know of. Isnt exactly detailed.

Qing armor with barding.

Why did Tang Dynasty armor have split / dual breastplates? Seems like it would be weaker than just a single plate.

What kind of armor would your typical Viking Age Anglo-Saxon wear?

A hauberk, helm and shield most likely.

Something similar to this layout I imagine

Armors from the Northern Song Wujing Zongyao retained this poncho like design.

Replicas will do just fine aswell.

Anglo's the master race m8. God must be on their side they win everything.

I wonder Hoo wore that..

Reminds me of that Robin Williams movie where he is a robot.

Imagine being some peasant landsknecht and you have to go up against this. Must have been hella scary.

Is this a German design? It must be the Porsche of the armours

Holy shit that is amazing, do you have any pictures of therest of the harness?

Yup german, if I remember correctly it is assosiated with Maximilliian II

Does early WW1 armor count?

THIS, every time an armor thread is made its always Vendal/renaissance armor posted.

I fucking love the armor of warrior saints, yet i really can't find any other depictions of it, most of the times its Krug armor, or what ever they called it.

JUST LOOK AT THIS

Also, can anyone identify the helmet?

the two second ones are scandinavian.
