As a working horse trainer for wilderness travel horses, I have worn cuffs for over 60:years. It was traditional clothing in the Big Basin country. Protecting the wrists when working in a environment where high impact was a regular occurrence, the cuffs add a significant amount of protection. Getting roughly put down in the rocks and dirt occasionally, the cuffs have, I believe, prevented badly sprained wrists or even broken bones. They definitely preserve the cuffs of your shirts. In the livestock or ranching business, shirts take a beating and often the cuffs are gone long before the shirt needs to be retired. Finally, cuffs help keep you warmer in very cold and windy weather by covering the arteries on your wrists. The difference is noticeable. See to your weapons and stand to your horses, Storm Rough Country Horses East of Tombstone

@ArizonaGhostriders 3 года назад

@victorwaddell6530 3 года назад

@@ArizonaGhostriders The concept of cuffs as defenses is a real thing . The Japanese had armored cuffs called 'Sode' , which means 'Sleeves' . Usually worn as a part of full armor , a Samurai would sometimes wear ony Sode when wearing armor wasn't acceptable. A proper set of Sode acted as two shields , but allowed the Samurai to have both hands available for wielding weapons and controlling their horse . I'm thinking a remake of Under The Red Sun starring Charles Bronson and Toshiro Mifune could exploit the idea of a Samurai in the Old West wearing Sode , weilding a Katana , and shooting a Daikyu Bow would make an exciting film .

@eldorados_lost_searcher 3 года назад

That's up for debate in the ancient history community, and it may be an affectation that started in Hollywood films because of the popularity of wristwatches at the time, and they needed something to cover the tanline. I believe that Scholagladiatora, Metatron, and Skallagrim have videos addressing this. That said, a bracer for archers isn't unheard of.

@@ArizonaGhostriders True, but just because he could shoot without it, it doesn't mean he didn't need most of the time. Or he just thought it looked good.

@RichWhiteUM 3 года назад

Nick does good work. He's doing custom stuff for Living History Comes Alive's store to help Drew fund the channel. On the history of those types of cuffs, they actually date back to the Bronze Age and were used to give archers more stability in their wrist and protect the arm from the snap of the bowstring. They were, and still are in archery, known as bracers. If you ever have a bow twist in your hand when firing, it can leave a nasty scrape and bruise on the inside of your forearm, when not wearing a bracer. I know from experience. With the advent of plate armor in the Middle Ages, they kept the bracer as part of the armor and it was termed the Vambrace. It would connect to the piece that covered your elbow. Modern archery bracers typically cover just the inside of the forearm and attach via straps. The bracer is also where the term bracelet derived, for that piece of jewelry. The first bracelets were short bracers used for decorative purposes, which were made from metal or leather. Over time, bracelets got smaller and were made from different materials, such as the metal, leather, plastic, and rubber versions we know today. Just thought I'd throw in a little more history on this type of arm wear. I hope some of you find it informative.

@ArizonaGhostriders 3 года назад

Thanks for the extra info, Rich!

@steadynumber1 2 года назад

Having engaged in Field Archery myself, props to Rich for making his observations on the bracer. The only thing I feel compelled to point out is that an arrow isn't fired, its shot (unless it's a flaming arrow I suppose). Projectile weapons weren't fired until the advent of gunpowder.

@ArizonaGhostriders 3 года назад

@Antiganos 11 месяцев назад

Bracers date back to very early civilization, and though usually over-represented in film, they were very common in the medieval period (and prior) on the left arm to protect from the slap of a bowstring for archers/etc. They far predate the victorian era where they made a comeback for cowboys.
