Deepeeka greaves
#1
Does anyone know how good the Deepeeka brass greaves are?
They are the only affordable brass greaves i have found, but are they okay?

Sorry this is so late, I have only just found your question. Several membersof The Hoplite Association have these greaves. They come leather-lined and look good but they are huge. Okay if you have massive calves, but several of our chaps, who have well-muscled legs, nonetheless have to pad their greaves extensively. One of the chaps says the greaves are so cheap, compared to the others available, that it's worth buying and "re-modelling" them. Hm. He might have the skills to do that, but I'm not sure I have, especially since my calves are decidedly skinny! (and thus could benefit from greaves more than the average!)
