Our shields are modeled from the most common shape found historically. The Greek Aspis/Hoplon, the Roman Clipeus, the Indian Dhal, the Scottish Targe, the Spartan, Norse (viking), or Yetholm shields, among others, were all examples of this circular shape. Our shields most closely resemble that of the Aspis/Hoplon, a shallow convex dome shape. Our design modernizes these to create a lighter, stronger, more durable and comfortable to use all purpose shield. They feature a rolled edge, foam arm padding, adjustable leather arm strap, and a solid grip.
