This is an authentic Edo-period samurai armor set, specifically designed for a foot soldier (ashigaru). Unlike modern reproduction armor, this set is a true historical piece featuring practical, no-frills design for battlefield use. The armor has a functional beauty, with minimal decoration, focusing on utility. The skirt (kusazuri) has been re-laced due to age-related wear. Ideal for collectors seeking an authentic example of Edo-era military equipment.
