Looking for leg armor
Sir William:
There's a lot of things out there that would look silly paired (or not) up. I once saw a guy wearing mail under a padded gambeson. That's like wearing your smallclothes on the outside. lol

Actually that was sometimes done. But yeah, I think it's silly too. :)

also, allan doesn't make true cased greaves that i know of, his have articulations at the top

Uhhh, this site only has 12 items under legs >_< http://www.merctailor.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=26

That's because he makes all of them. If you find a site with more, there is a 99% chance they are just reselling someone else's stuff - most likely GDFB or India/Pakistan armor, which is "one size fits you, or you modify it yourself". I haven't seen an armorer with prices like MercTailor and the diversity he has who makes all their own stuff, and I've had armor for 15 years. Just some friendly advice to try to save you wasting money on things that probably won't fit well and you'll end up replacing. :)
