Quilted Pourpoint for Full-Contact Armor — Lacing

Quilted pourpoint built to sit under plate or mixed armor in full contact. A single padding layer adds cushioning and reduces pressure points without excessive bulk, keeping mobility and ventilation. Lace ties replace buttons for better reliability under stress, quick size adjustment, and simple field repair (swap the lace fast). The cut is shaped for active movement so the torso and sleeves keep working in clinch and long rounds. Sizes: M–L and XL–XXL.

Product description

Pourpoint is a quilted under-armor jacket designed for full-contact historical fighting. Its job is practical: add a compliant layer between body and metal, improve comfort under plate/mixed kits, cushion contact loads, and help spread pressure from straps, edges, and suspension.

Protection and durability. The base build uses a single padding layer to provide cushioning without unnecessary thickness. This supports long sessions: less rubbing, fewer hot spots under cuirass, shoulders, or brigandine, and more consistent fit across rounds. Reinforcement zones or extra padding can be requested to suit your armor setup—without implying default one-off bespoke tailoring.

Mobility and fit. The pattern is adapted for anatomy and active movement: arms up, rotations, clinch work. Lace closure is used instead of buttons to handle combat stress, allow quick volume adjustment, and tune the jacket to your armor layers.

Use and maintenance. Laces are easy to replace on the field. Local stitching can be serviced without rebuilding the whole garment. Standard practice: dry after training and check seams in high-friction zones (armpits, waist, shoulder line).

Historical basis. The concept and geometry follow historical analogs of military pourpoint/arming doublet known from iconography and surviving examples—this is a modern fighting garment oriented to prototypes rather than an absolute reconstruction claim.

Tournament checks. This is an under-armor layer. Compliance depends on your event rules, the full kit, and inspection outcomes by officials.
