RFB Kite Shield - Unpainted

Epic Armoury – RFB Kite Shield – Medieval LARP Kite Shield

The RFB Kite Shield by Epic Armoury is a semi-curved kite shield inspired by the shields used by the Normans between the 10th and 12th centuries. Measuring approximately 60 cm in length, it is an excellent addition to medieval LARP characters and historical fantasy costumes.

A distinctive feature is the carved rim, designed to resemble a metal border with decorative studs. Its timeless, classic appearance makes it easy to combine with a wide range of armour styles and character concepts.

The RFB Kite Shield is available in several colour options. The unpainted version also gives you the opportunity to customize the shield and create a design that suits your character. Use paint specifically designed for EVA foam and, once the paint has dried, seal the surface with a coat of clear latex.

Two canvas arm straps are fitted to the back, allowing the shield to be worn either left- or right-handed. Made from hard EVA foam, the shield is designed for LARP use. Regular maintenance of the latex surface helps keep it in good condition over time.
