A bracer (or arm-guard) may be a strap or sheath, commonly made from leather, stone, or plastic that covers the within of an archer's arm to guard it while shooting. Bracers protect the within of the archer's forearm against injury by the string of the bow or the fletching of the arrow. They also prevent loose clothing from catching the bow string. They normally cover a part of the forearm only, but chest-guards are sometimes worn, usually by female archers, and other areas have sometimes been protected. With some combinations of non-baggy clothing and bows with a bigger distance between the bow and therefore the string, the archer might not got to wear any bracer.
