Wearing greaves on the march
#12
@Joe: yes, that's what I meant by puttee.

Funnily, I've been thinking that tying it in place around the calf with a leather strap was about the only way it would work - other than hanging it from a strap on my back.
Vanity - I didn't want the nice greave to have a leather strap marring its shiny appearance!
I think I'll try that approach, and see how it goes.

Will be doing a 13 km + / 8 mile march tomorrow, and report back... :unsure:
