Custom Made Medieval Equipment
Custom Made Medieval Equipment
In an age of digital everything and mass production, there’s something undeniably powerful about holding a handcrafted medieval sword, wearing a perfectly fitted chainmail hauberk, or strapping on a shield built to your own design. At Thornmails, that’s exactly what we offer: custom made medieval equipment forged by tradition, tailored to you, and built to stand the test of time.
Whether you’re a historical reenactor, a LARP enthusiast, a museum curator, or a collector of medieval artifacts, there’s one thing we all agree on—details matter. You don’t just want gear that looks medieval; you want gear that feels authentic, tells a story, and fits like it was made in the Middle Ages—because it kind of was.
At Thornmails, our passion is transforming raw steel, leather, and wood into living history. And with our expert team of craftsmen and researchers, we’ve become a leading name in the world of custom made medieval equipment.
Why Custom Made Medieval Equipment Still Matters Today?
Why do people still seek out custom medieval gear in the 21st century? It’s simple: because off-the-shelf just doesn’t cut it when you’re aiming for historical accuracy, superior performance, or personal storytelling.
Here’s what sets custom gear apart:
Authenticity: Whether you want a 14th-century Milanese armor set or a replica of a Norman kite shield, we ensure every detail is era-accurate.
Fit and Functionality: Off-the-rack gear is rarely designed for comfort or use. Custom pieces are made to your measurements, allowing for greater mobility and realism.
Craftsmanship: Machine-made armor can’t match the soul of handcrafted items forged by artisans.
Personalization: From etchings and engravings to custom insignias, your equipment reflects your unique story or character.
That’s why custom made medieval equipment isn’t just for display—it’s for people who take their passion seriously.
The Thornmails Difference:
At Thornmails, we don’t believe in shortcuts. Each item we produce is made by hand in our dedicated workshop, where tradition meets precision. We’re proud to continue the legacy of centuries-old craftsmanship that India is famous for, combining it with world-class standards in design, materials, and customer care.
As a company, we’ve earned our reputation globally by doing things the right way—from the forge to your doorstep.

The Customization Process: From Concept to Creation:
Ordering from Thornmails is more than a transaction—it’s a collaboration. Here’s how our custom process works:
1. Consultation
You tell us what you’re envisioning. We talk time period, design details, intended use (display, combat, etc.), and your budget. You can provide references, sketches, or even just a rough idea.
2. Design Phase
Our design team drafts your piece and sends it for your review. You can request changes or additions before we move forward.
3. Crafting
Once you approve the design, our artisans get to work using traditional tools and forging methods. Expect hammering, riveting, polishing, engraving, and a whole lot of care.
4. Finishing & Testing
Each item is tested for durability, balance, and comfort before shipping. You get updates throughout the process so you always know what’s happening.
5. Shipping
We package your gear securely and ship worldwide with tracking, insurance, and customs paperwork all handled on our end.
This end-to-end process is what makes our custom made medieval equipment not just high-quality—but deeply personal.
