"Wildman Suit"

Currently, the unique "Wildman Suit" is exhibited at the Menil Collection in Houston, Texas. This armor, double-layered and entirely covered with one-inch-long iron nails pointing outwards, continues to be as enigmatic as it is daunting. Commonly believed to be armor used for bear hunting in Siberia in the 1800s, there are those who argue it was actually employed in the brutal sport of bear-baiting that was prevalent in England during Shakespeare's time.

However, the original function of the "Wildman Suit" still remains a mystery even after several centuries.
