We offer both round shields and heater shields, replicating two of the more common shield types that were favored by soldiers and warriors across medieval Europe. And because they work so well, these functional, steel shields also double over as brilliant reenactment shields, where their heraldries provide a touch of realism and their strength ensures a wielder's defense. Speaking of heraldries, our battle ready shields feature a wide assortment of designs, ranging from plain shields that feature no designs to impressive shows of regal fleur de lis designs and rampant lion heraldries. We even offer shields that recreate the classic cross symbols of famous knightly orders, like Templars, Crusaders, and even the Teutonic Knights!
