Putting on Japanese armor -- A step by step guide | Japanese history, culture, and kodan

How did samurai warriors in the Sengoku Period put on their armor? What did they wear on and off the battlefield? What kind of sword techniques did they use?
In this video, I’m going to show you how warriors from the Sengoku Period put on armor. I’ll introduce to you to all the parts that go with it and what they are called. As a bonus, I’ll show you an example of a sword technique used.

If your finding you are getting sore shoulders from wearing Do, then you also need to wear a Sarashi Belt (torso wrap) or an Obi.
I have both and they are designed to take the weigh off your shoulders, so that the Do sits on your hips. 🙂

I am planning on making a Samurai Kit out of kozane. All the videos I've watched on doning Samurai Armour, they never name what's worn under it. Now I know Nobakama & Funazoko-sode is the under garments.
Thank You

I am so glad I could help! Not sponsored, but the kosode is from the internet shop, Miyako （美夜古)　Give them a look. Hope you complete your kit. How exciting!
