Why did the French make such faggoty/shit looking armor?
Germans and Anglos had superior looking ones.
What gives?

Well post Brazilian armor from the middle a... oh wait hahaha
Also, the soldiers in your pic could aswell have been english
Brazil didn't even exist back then, it was still occupied mainly by amerindians.
They aren't, they are french.
Google if you doubt it.

>and everyone in western Europe basically wore the same thing
"No."
What is Landsknecht, frog???
Everyone all the way to Khwarezm wore roughly the same shit, plus-minus some taller helmets or face masks.
well, I only now realized you said "western" Europe so my bad on that one.
>landsknecht
why this question
Because they had unique clothes? Don't see how that counters my point really
>hurr durr German armor was superior
HRE was the most incompetent and -- ironically -- irrelevant empire in Europe
>hurr durr French armor sux
>France conquered England and roflstomed >H >R >E on numerous occasions
Yes, the people that invented chivalry definately didnt know how to dress the part.
british infantry from that time period didn't look any different, people should stop thinking everyone in the middle ages was a knight in full plate armor
Most people have seriously warped ideas about equipment from the era. Most don't even know that firearms existed before plate armor.
Landsknecht are from the XV-XVI century, the french armor you're showing up there was used between the XII-XIV centuries
Nice thread... Tell me about spanish armor
Post your thread in /tg/ and watch your anus get turned into sopa.
Well yes.
That makes them unique that's kinda the point.
