Underwraps Men’s Plus Size Knight In Shining Armor Costume

There’s plenty of reason that the idea of a knight in shining armor has endured through the centuries. Even though military technology has replaced old-school metal armor with more effective technological solutions, and modern-day knighthoods are more likely to be handed out for recording some hit singles than for slaying a ferocious dragon, the old image still carries a lot of romantic weight.
