The Men of the Night's Watch were first and foremost warriors, protecting the lands of Westeros from the dangers north of the Wall. In order to survive in combat, a strong gambeson was needed to help pad and protect the body from a variety of blows. This officially licensed Jon Snow gambeson is designed with the warrior in mind and made from a cotton blended fabric, which is dyed black to match the iconic look of the Night's Watch from the hit HBO series, Game of Thrones.
