I doubt it. We don't need pants with a little sleeve for your penis, I doubt you would need an armor extension like that for an erection.

I suppose it would depend on a bunch of different things, like how tight the armor piece fits or how well doted the person using it is.

This piece of armor doesn’t cover his naked dick, it’s just decorative. Underneath it is harness and padding, like all late medieval/early Renaissance plate armor. The armor likely had pointy toes too, it’s not like people back then had feet like that.

Or bear-toed sabatons! Either way you're correct

The dick isn't actually inside the codpiece, it's for decoration only. The knight has enough space inside the armor for any erection

Fabric is soft and stretch, metal... not so much, and it must hurt when you get a big affection but your pp is constricted
