The bracer was essential equipment for the medieval archer, protecting the forearm from the snap of the bowstring on release as much as from an opponent’s blow. This pair is worked in mild steel with attached leather straps, giving a firm, secure grip on the arm during repeated draws and releases. Simple and practical, it recreates equipment that would have been common across archers, soldiers and militia alike.
