Description
This suit is crafted by our skilled katchû-shi (Japanese armor smith) here at Iron Mountain Armory, in honor of legendary Uesugi Kenshin – “The Dragon of Echigo”. Daimyo Uesugi Kenshin ruled the province of Echigo towards the end of the Sengoku Period during feudal Japan. He was known for his prowess in both the battlefield and in the courtroom. Kenshin earned his reputation and name of “The Dragon of Echigo” after several clashes with the legendary “Tiger of Kai”, better known as Takeda Shingen. Both may have received these names for their interest in Sun Tzu’s work “The Art of War” and their intense interest in Chinese warrior culture.
The two Daimyo would clash 5 times before Takeda would finally succeed in victory over Kenshi. Because of Uesugi Kenshin’s belief in the Buddhist god of war, his men regarded him as the Avatar of Bishamonten, calling Kenshin the “God of War.” His yoroi set comes with both dragon maedate (crest) and large Buddhist prayer beads.
Iron Mountain Armory will craft your Kachi Armor using mostly synthetic materials, traditional designs and, the implementation of more modern tools and techniques. We offer the options to change the style of the kabuto (helmet), menpo (mask) and suneate (shin guards). The standard colors of Uesugi Kenshin’s Dragon Armor are black as the primary color, with blue lacing. We offer the ability to customize it however you like – including paints, laces, material and leather in multiple colors and styles. This beautiful samurai yoroi set is also offered in both Gashira and Taisho class.
Features: Kachi Class.
- Variation of paint, nylon odoshi colors and features.

The armor I received was an amazing piece of craftsmanship. The quality of the armor is the best I have ever seen. It fits perfectly and it is comfortable to wear and move around in. I would like to thank your armory for your work. I look forward to buying more in the future.
Amazing Armor
I am loving this armor. It looks amazing, a work of art – from the overall design down to the little details. The quality is fantastic. It also fit perfectly. I’d like to note that the customer service I received was great, helping walk me through getting the armor sized right.
The pictures don’t do this armor justice. The armor looks amazing and gets a “WOW” from just about everyone who steps into our waiting room. Clients stand around the armor while waiting giving us a new prestige of success.
My armor arrived today. I can not adequately express how happy I am with it. I was only able to put it on and walk around a little today and than set it up for display, but tomorrow I will be sure to give it a more thorough test. Everything seems great though from what time I spent wearing it and it looks perfect on display. I would also like to say thank you for the extra touches you did, I really appreciate it. I am very happy with everything and I will be sure to spread the word as best I can.
as the other comments say this armor is beautiful. great quality I am very happy and outstanding customer service.
