Hey, guys, don't be so critical! It's no easy feat to stretch a piece of leather into a bowl like that. And anyhow, wouldn't that just be a dandy match for leather segmentata?

Heh. :twisted:

What's really sad is... the amount of workmanship that went into making that is extreme... seriously, just try to make that from scratch!

All that workmanship to make a hunk of junk… that craftsman put in so much work to make something so unauthentic… it’s just a sad waste of time.

It’s like those wild look Julius Caesar swords, there’s a tremendous amount of workmanship that went into making something completely unauthentic from unathtentic materials!
Vale!

Do they come in Denim as well? :lol: :lol: I particularly like the way the trim is a differnt colour to appear like brass :?

Where did you find it??

I suppose it's only a matter of time before someone buries it in their garden for a year and tries to pass it off on ebay as an original :?

Roman paintballus? That's probably why they left the front open, so you could put on goggles. I don't know why I didn't think of that right off.
