Leather armor has been used by different civilizations at different times, and often shows up at Renaissance faires and other historical reenactments. Besides being tough and durable, leather is also relatively easy to care for, although it does need regular attention. When properly maintained, good medieval leather armor can last decades and still be in excellent shape.
