I started with caligae. Hobnails can be ordered online, leather is fairly cheap to get, and there are plenty of instructional aids around. Just get enough leather for 2 pairs because if you have never worked with leather, you will probably mess up more than once...
The balteus is not too hard to assemble. Leather, plates, buckle, danglium and leather straps. Good Luck.
