Great quality set of armor. I would strongly recommend wearing a gambeson underneath for comfort. The only downsides I could think off is that all the weight does noticeably rest on your wrist and forearms.

Fits snug over
My gambleson. I’m 5’3” tall at 144 lbs and they are a little long for me. That said though, they have a good feel to them

They move well and you can bend them to shape if you’re a bit skinnier. The straps are going to need some extra holes made but the steel is finished nicely.
