Medieval armor would have been fairly hot to wear. The under layer of armor, or in the case of a common soldier who could not afford better, the only armor, was a cloth garment known as a gambeson or aketon. This was a long sleeved long coat that consisted of many layers (some sources say as many as 30 layers) of fabric quilted together. This provided protection from blunt impacts and kept metal armor from chafing the wearer. If this was being worn as the only armor the garment might have been faced with leather or heavy canvas on the outer layer. The multiple layers, similar in theory to the design of modern body armor, would help dissipate the energy of sharp weapons as well, and in some cases would even stop arrows.
Wearing such armor was like walking around wrapped in heavy quilts. In cold weather this would have been a nice advantage, but in warm weather it would have been quite uncomfortable.

What kind of armour did the people in the middle age wear?
At the very beginning of the Middle Ages, they wore the same armor the Romans did, or they wore the armor of the Germanic tribes, which was rather a combination of things, but largely a copy of Roman armor. As time went by, they adopted scale armor that was a combination of rings and strips of steel plate sewn to leather, called ring mail and scale armor. Later yet, they used chain mail, in which the rings interlocked, and developed plate armor, in which the pieces of steel plate conformed to larger parts of the body.
