Uchema's Technique

Uchema's technique was a style of armorsmithing used to produce specialty armor for scouts and siege engineers, which could be anything from a simple suit of ashigaru armor to a splendid, heavy suit of ō-yoroi. With careful tailoring and clever use of lacing and straps, an armorsmith could use the technique to make a suit of armor more flexible and easier to wear. A warrior wearing a suit made with this technique couldn run, climb, bend, leap, and otherwise move as if they were wearing simple clothing rather than bulky armor.
