13th Century Teutonic Knight Armor 

I was about to ask just this, without some kind of socks I think the boots would have destroyed the feet after walking 100 meters! ^_^

OK, but what about footwraps? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Footwraps

@@genekalutsky8813 foot wraps were common for the lower foot soldiers, but a fully fledged Teutonic Brother would’ve been wealthy enough to afford woolen stockings to protect his bare feet. Much like in Biblical times, people in the Middle Ages were very aware of foot health.

Imagine how you would smell bad if you would go to +40 C to fight with this thing...

Also after getting kitted up in all that stuff realizing oh man I really need to take a dump, having to urinate would be a nightmare in that stuff.

It's actually really easy to go with all this on. The leggings are individual hose for each leg. Your underwear are exposed under all this armor and all you gotta do is pull them down and then back up without even having to adjust anything else.

I think that's where he was going when he walked off at the end.

They probably just pissed themselves lmao

What do you mean?

@@Leoxxxxx5 He means hollywood has the most unrealistic portrayal and use of armour. In fact hollywood armour is a joke in itself, as are the battles with wildly charging cavalry and infantry, and explosions.

@@MikeWhiskyTango They get it right every once in awhile - I mean the armor and weaponry used in the Lord of the Rings trilogy was realistic (the armor and weapons used by the Men, Elves, and Dwarves I should say). So they don't fail in the presentation of armor and weaponry so often as they fail in the usage - like swords cutting through armor as if it's just there for aesthetics. The wildly charging cavalry thing isn't as bad as Hollywood's love for raining arrows (because for some reason they figure in a country full of gun enthusiasts that no one knows how projectile weapons work). My big question is - why Japan was mentioned; I mean if it's about anime, isn't the whole point of anime to be super unrealistic?

@@jowolf2187 yeah to be honest I don't mind anime and fantasy armour being unrealistic. It looks cool. But it was good that LOTR put some effort in regards to the armour anyway.

@@jowolf2187 Berserk, for example has portrayed medieval armor very well in tge golden age arc. Vinland saga, Maria the Virgin and some other animes do that too.

@Czech Empire very cringe take!

This will be the video I show in the future when someone starts telling me how unrealistic it is to put on chainmail in a round. Heck, even 10 rounds.

well remember to balance realism with fun, it's why some video games streamline some aspects of gameplay, for example, despite the fact that red dead 2 needs you to clean your gun to keep it from degrading, it doesn't ask you to take a good 5 minutes to sit down and wipe clean a single handgun, instead it just asks you to make sure you carry some gun oil and check on your gun once in a while. while it's more realistic that CSGO, it going over the top will eventually staying boring some audiences

@@theshadowthie1 sure, but not cleaning a blackpowder handgun means it blows up if you keep using it or utterly fails, so having it so you HAVE to clean it is fine and keep immersion for people with enough brain cells to know how firearms work. I don't expect everyone to wear well researched perfectly fitted armor they had fitted for themselves out of the exact time period the games tech level is set in, but similarly you can't just take off your chain armor, fold it in your bag, go to the bar for drinks and then pop it on real quick when a brawl breaks out like superman changing in a back ally.

@@Dies1r4e no, but again, like I said, too much of something can't be a good thing, it'd make sense for a surprise encounter to not allow you to equip your armor for the fight if you're in a tavern or some play where you're more relaxed, but sometimes bending immersion for the sake of adding dynamic mechanics came make the game more fun! for example, maybe allowing an option where if the party focuses on defending their tank for a turn or two to give him the opportunity to get properly equipped, which adds more tactics for the party to consider, since if they can do that for the tank, then the tank can do the same thing for them, so weighing the option to defend and absorb attacks for the sake of getting properly armed becomes something to consider

What a neat idea. I never thought of that.

Indeed, thy may feel quite hungry. I wondereth what Theresa is upon to.

I too feel quite hungry

God save ya Henry!

I feel quite Hungary

You call that combat?

in the middle east yes, but the Teutonic Order fought mainly in Eastern Europe

In the Summer, you're hot as hell, during every other time of the year, you'll feel utterly cold and miserable. Gotta love metal armor.

@@Isnogood12 I would think that all the padding underneath the metal would offer some insulation from the cold.

The heat and the effort of having to carry that excess weight on you. In real combat, no one expected you to have to sustain an exchange of blows for more than a few minutes without stopping to take a breath. That's why playing as a team and not fighting all at the same time, but taking turns with your teammates, it was essential if you wanted to eat breakfast again. It was not uncommon to die in combat from a heart failure or even a blood pressure stroke due to the tremendous physical exertion and stress you put your body through during a melee fight to the death.

@@pulsarplay5808 huh, makes sense. That's definitely a good reason to be in a group. Also why a Lance would also be used. If you make the horse do all the running that would be a lot easier

It's time for a crusade.

It's not really "Teutonic" apart from black cross on white cloak. The mail, gambeson etc is pretty much what every knight wore at the time...

There's actually very little for you to remove to pee. Number two would be more difficult, but we know all the brave little knights go before leaving to take Jerusalem!

Thank you!! I still do have some work to do on fitting the chausses, and yeah a dagger would be a nice touch, I'm quite pleased with how far it's come along though.

@@teutonicpenguin9593 You're welcome. It really is some nice work. The only things I'd change would be more of a personal taste thing. Rather than correcting anything. Damn fine work.

TeutonicPenguin great job! i was woundering if you could answer some questions? first, i noticed a lot of mail coifs of this time usually go above the chin, not bellow them. was this technique also period acurate? second, a lot of the effigies i have seen seem to have the mail trace the thinning shape as the arm connects to the wrist. would the underlying gambison, and therefor the mail also be so personally tailored that this look would have been real? , i was woundering in your opinion, why didnt knights were some more solid armor like lamillar over their chainmail like you shown in your verangian armor video? was mail just considered enough? and going off this point. during this period would the individual pieces of mail be different sizes depending on the part of the body? like would heavier rings or a sturdier construction be used on the chest to protect it more than the arms and provide a more rigged defense?

Jackson Almodobar 1. Yes, the mail coif should go over the chin to protect the throat. Sometimes it even went over the mouth 2. If a knight could afford it, he’d have his mail tailored to fit his body 3. They wore coat of plates the 13th-14th centuries, over their mail armor

Svetlana Kuznetkova thank you for your responce! on number 2. most illustrations of knights from this period, both modern renditions in textbooks and period ones, seem to have the mail to almost be form fitting. so much so that you can see the tapering of the forarm from the elbow to the wrist, and even the calf of the leg! i would assume these dimensions would be hard to replicate. 3. i was specifically refering to the time before the coat of plates, from about the 11th to the early 13th century. seems odd that such heavily armed heavy cavalry would only use mail durring this time when solid protection like lamilar was possible to put over it. i assume there had to be something about european maile construction that would make them intentionally forgo added protection. I do know that it was very affective against muslim archers during the early crusades.

Just put on the helmet and pick up the sword and shield. Should keep his head and his ding dong safe until help arrives

Teutonic Knights mostly fought in the colder Baltic area anyways, but yea I get what you mean.

@@VOTE_REFORM_UK not really - while I was in Apulia I learnt that they had lots of possessions in Southern Italy and took active part in the Sixth crusade lead by Frederick of Swabia, King of Sicily and German Emperor - being from Germany himself he probably patronized the "German Order". There in Italy you can still find medieval churches and towers named German or Teutonic.

I know this is two yrs old, but layers beat thickness? Layers are what cause thickness

@@dustinthesmoke7757 you can have a thick plate of steel on you and it will be a worse type of armour than having mail with a padded piece of clothing underneath. Layers do cause thickness, but thickness can exist without layers

Footwraps work! I used them for two years of my life while enlisted. In bad conditions, I'd for the footwraps over the socks every time.

Not relevant given this armor was intended for use on horseback.

@@spades9681 In a time where sieges prevailed, with much difference, than battles, deducing that these armors were made only to go on a horse is not having much idea of what is being talked about. I can buy you that argument if we are talking about a later time, when plate armor was fully developed (XV century) and some suit of armors was made exclusively for participating in tournaments on a horse. Extremely heavy armor made solely to protect against the clash of spears in jousting and tournaments that were not intended for fighting on foot.

@@pulsarplay5808 Of course they weren’t made solely for use on horseback, all I meant is that almost every unique facet of the high medieval knight’s armor arose from mounted use (face protection, rider’s stitch, coat/pair-of-plates, etc.). The knight of this period was principally mounted, and this did not always mean pitched battles full of cavalry charges and the like, but also small skirmishes, including during a siege. Because sieges, as I’m sure you know, were more attrition than actual combat, and what combat did take place was not restricted to a charge on foot on top of siege engines and ladders, but also skirmishes outside the walls. But yes, my calling it irrelevant was misplaced, because foot combat in this configuration did occur, and yes, I’m sure you’d have to pull back after only a little bit of actual fighting.

Gotta love that wool!

Yes. Ideally, a camp would be guarded by sentries and have fortifications so that the camp becomes a fort.

​@@civilengineer3349I mean... Why not just keep your armor on while in an open camp anyway?

Start a war ? You must be knew to history. Not to start war, to protect the pilgrims and the people that were rapped, kidnapped, killed, by the sarracens/muslims wile on pilgrimage to the Holy Land, and to reapture it after was taken by force . All of this decades and decades after the first church and Christians were burned to the ground , killed and converted ( small stuff, right ? ) . Very different from starting a war.

Pedro Silva Ferreira What a strange comment. You obviously romanticise about the brave Christian warriors (who also murdered, raped and burned places of worship) You also obviously agree with the politics for starting the war, but yes, sending an army thousands of miles away to a different country is starting a war.

@@callumbiasnow4825 the crusaders were sent to a land that was christian under byzantine rule for centuries, a land that was forcefully converted to islam by the sword, an expansion that at it's peak stopped only in nowadays southern France. Of course they also pillaged and murdered, like everyone else at the time, but to think that it was just about sending an army to conquer land is selective revisionism; the 1st crusade was a rematch for the abbasid caliphate jihad
