Includes:  Black pants, dark red shirt, dark red velvet surcoat with gold trim, dark blue/black leather surcoat with white tree embroidery and gold trim, dark blue cloak lined with red, pauldrons and upper arm armor, shin guards and foot armor.

Does NOT include: chainmaille, bracers, weapons, belt or boots.  However, I can direct you to excellent sources for the items I do not provide, or can purchase them for you and add them to the cost.  All items are negotiable – the costume doesn’t come prepackaged, so you can order separate parts if necessary.

Cost: $700 - $1000.
