Gobbo Shield

Epic Armoury’s Gobbo Shield is a light, flat latex shield with dark wood and steel details. The shield is shaped like a waning crescent moon, featuring a hand-painted steel rim, shield boss, and Maltese cross. Detailed brass studs secure the metal to a wood base, textured and painted to look like realistic woodgrain. The shield has a full grain leather strap for an extra secure fit.

Featuring a reliable and comfortable punch-grip, feel confident that this hard EVA foam and latex shield will withstand the continued abuse of a LARP with regular latex maintenance. Defend against your enemies and make this Gobbo Shield a part of your epic fighting style.
