Excellent basic shoulder protection for dueling.
Couldn’t ask for more. As described, shipped rapidly, high quality, and came with everything needed.
It’s good. Feels a bit flimsy even though I know they hold up. This really comes down to personal preference. Love that it came in the full kit and made suiting up from box to fight very simple.
I REALLY wish this had have come with proper instructions for adjusting the size, and any recommendations for packing/storing gear. It’s a pain in the ass, and obviously very heavy. The bag really needs to be adjusted so it fits properly. I may have a better recommendation once I learn to adjust it and pack better….but perhaps 2 rolling suitcases would have been a better investment. Quality is fantastic though! LOVE the bag as a hiking bag for sure.
Eh, wish the leather didn’t get ruined so quickly with use, but it’s to be expected. Gauntlets are pretty tough on the handles.
Guys, I have my own kit now! It’s so great to just be able to put everything on. Fits like a glove. I was worried that i’d lost some weight and things wouldn’t fit, but everything is perfect. Only issue- I KNOW they don’t have arming points on the gambeson, just wish they did. Otherwise, everything was packaged perfectly, fits perfectly, and looks awesome.
Amazing quality
