| Our Products This business is the result of years of frustration on the part of 16th and 17th century East European reenactors. Look through the Internet and you'll find dozens of merchants supplying medieval, Revolutionary War, Civil War and World War II reenactors. Few vendors have met the needs of the growing Polish and East European reenacting community. Our mission is to help promote Polish and East European culture and historic awareness. Our goal is to supply reenactors with the clothing and accouterments needed to promote our rich Slavic and Steppe heritage. Armor Through painstaking research I have tried reproduce to the best of my abilities the rich armour worn by the brave Polish knights that were once the lords of the battlefields of Central and Eastern Europe. I look forward to the challenge of requests for other types of Eastern armor from other cultures. Weaponry The weaponry we make in our workshop and import from Eastern Europe are products of a very recent renaissance in the world of reenacting. Hopefully this new interest in our cultures will lead to the availability of more and more quality saber, firearms and weapons. Period Clothing We East Europeans had our own unique style of clothing in the 16th and 17th centuries. The fashion was no longer heavily influenced by France, Germany and Italy, but by Eastern adversaries like the Turks and Tartars and allies like the Hungarians. Meanwhile, our own national costumes were also developing. Functionality played a big roll in our fashion as well. Boots, fur hats and fur lined coats with extra long sleeves kept a horseman warm in the harsh East European winters. Few in the West realize how the fashion of Eastern armies influenced many of the armies of Western Europe and even the Americas in later centuries. Even the American cowboy boot has had it's origins traced back to the Polish and Hungarian riding boot of the 17th century.
