About
PU Armor Shoulders Shoulder armor does more work visually than almost any other piece in a kit. It adds width, presence, and silhouette from a distance, and it is often what tips a costume from looking assembled to looking armored. Epic Armoury's PU shoulder armor is molded from polyurethane: lightweight, precisely detailed, and ready to wear straight out of the box. The range covers both pauldrons and spaulders across several distinct aesthetic directions, from classical antiquity to heavy fantasy builds. At a glance: Material: Molded polyurethane (PU) Weight: Significantly lighter than leather or metal equivalents Fastenings: Adjustable strap-and-buckle Maintenance: Wipe clean, no conditioning required Use: Suitable for LARP, reenactment, cosplay, and costume What Is PU Shoulder Armor? PU shoulder armor covers the shoulder joint and upper arm, adding bulk and visual presence to the top of a kit. It comes in two main forms. Pauldrons are larger, multi-plate constructions that wrap around the shoulder and typically extend onto the upper chest and back. Spaulders are more compact, sitting on top of the shoulder without the extended coverage of a full pauldron. Both serve the same purpose: they broaden the silhouette and give the kit a more fully armored appearance. The choice between them is about how much coverage and visual weight you want at the top of the body. What You Will Find in This Category The range splits naturally between larger pauldron designs and more compact spaulders, with a total of seven pieces covering a wide spread of aesthetics. The pauldron designs in the range, the Palace Guard, Nordic, Outrider, Spartan, and Barbarian, each bring a distinct visual direction. Some are grounded in historical military tradition, others lean into fantasy and mercenary silhouettes. What they share is multi-plate construction, detailed surface finishing, and substantial shoulder coverage. If you want the shoulders to be a significant part of your overall silhouett
