Ithorian guardian armor's chestplate.
The Ithorian guardian armor was a type of Ithorian armor used during the Galactic Civil War.[2] It offered a high degree of protection against energy-based weapons like blasters but lesser protection from kinetic damage.[1] The complete armor set included helmet, chest plate, left & right biceps, left & right bracers, gloves, leggings and boots. It was available in several different colors. The Ithorian guardian armor was clearly designed to fit an Ithorian body type and could exclusively be worn by members of this species. Two other models of Ithorian armor were the Ithorian defender and the Ithorian sentinel armors.[2]
