Chaps, (and our revered chapess)
You can see people's kit on their groupo websites. Ours is www.hoplites.org and we have another at www.4hoplites.com .
The Spartanwarband has its own site and so do The Greek Warriors of New York. If you do a web search, you'll be able to see the kit of every member of each group.
Andy, you don't HAVE to have greaves, few of us have and they were actually going out of fashion at the time of the Persian Wars. I know they look great, IF you get good ones and my legs would look better in them than out, just as my face improves in a Corinthian helmet, but your kit could not be deemed incomplete without them.
