VEMBRACES

I have never stopped training, in fact I personally train about 4 hours a week.
Not including the events where I take the field.

Starting tomorrow in Archeon.
3 days of training and 2 days of 2 fight shows a day.

Foot protection.
Same as with the lower arm and the hands, no evidence.
No fun someone standing on your barefeet or your soft shoes with his hobnailed boots.
Also don't forget the antipersonal material like caltrops on the field.
Or an arrow coming down, or being stabbed with the swordpoint or a spear in your foot.
One of the fighters assigned to my team in Wolin broke his big toe, thanks to the simple fact that the carrying strap of his shield broke.

The smallest weapon that I use is a knife with a 12cm blade, length according to the smallest Gladiator dagger in Junkelmans Book, the longest weapon a 2,5mtr long spear.

The words clog/galosh referes to a "protective" overshoe.
It is thought that Galosh referred to a overshoe worn by the Gauls.
But how it looked like, your guess is as good as mine.
