I’ll start by saying that this isn’t perfect or perfectly realistic, but for what it is, and for the price, it’s great. I wore it to the Ren Faire and it held up well. I had a few people ask me if it was real metal or not. It fit fairly comfortably and didn’t put much stress on the shoulders. Where the shoulder of the breastplate overlaps the one from the back plate, there is a bit of rubbing, and the paint scratched off, but since this is on the underlayer, you can’t see it when it’s worn. The straps are real leather and are pretty thick. They seem like they’ll hold up well. I was worried about the look of the overlapping plates, but it was hard to notice when I had everything on. There is a little rust on the inside rivets, probably from where I sweat on it. Doesn’t look like it’ll be a problem, though. I am also able to leave three of the four straps fastened and put the armor on over my head without undoing everything each time. It’s a little tricky, but one can put it on by themselves. It’s not without flaws, but for the cost savings and ease of care over metal armor, it’s a real deal. I’d recommend this one for sure. Oh, and it arrived a day early, so great shipping on Medieval Collectables’ part. Thanks!

It looks decent, fits well is very light and is decently priced for what you get but after just a years worth of LARP the paint has started to come off in alot of places.
I have two polyurthane armor sets and the other one has held up much better with no paint peeling that I’ve noticed.
