This article is about Sabaton as a type of armour, for the band, see: Sabaton (band)

A Sabaton or solleret is part of a Knight's armour that covers the foot. Fifteenth century sabatons typically end in a tapered point well past the actual toes of the wearer's foot. Sixteenth century sabatons end at the tip of the toe and may be wider than the actual foot.
