Merc Tassets - Light Kit

The Merc Tassets (Light Kit) provide essential hip and thigh defense inspired by Renaissance pikeman armor. Crafted from high-density polyurea, they offer the structured, laminate look of steel with significantly reduced weight and no need for maintenance.

These tassets is designed to look like three overlapping plates covering your upper thighs. Designed specifically for the Mercenary Armour set, they feature integrated squared holes to hook directly onto the cuirass fastenings, securing easily with leather cords.

Key Features

• High-density Polyurea: Lightweight, impact-resistant, and rust-proof.

• Historical Profile: Three-plate laminate design mimicking classic pikeman protection.
  

• Custom Integration: Features squared attachment holes for a seamless fit with the Mercenary cuirass.

• Zero Maintenance: No oiling or polishing required.

• Sizes: S/M, L/XL
  

Fit, adjustment & care

The strap system handles most sizing on its own, but for a closer fit, you can gently reshape the material itself using heat. Apply heat to the inside of the piece rather than the painted exterior, so the material becomes flexible without damaging the finish.

• Finish: The base material underneath the painted surface is black, so over time, scratches and general wear may reveal this black color underneath.

• Easy touch-ups: Minor cosmetic damage, such as scuffs or scratches can be simply repaired at home using a primer and acrylic hobby paints (such as Army Painter or Citadel).

• Leather care: The leather straps should be maintained like any other full-grain leather product, with occasional conditioning to keep them supple and long-lasting.

• A living finish: Wear and patina are a natural part of your armor's lifecycle and can be expected with regular use, adding to the authentic, battle-worn character of the piece.
