300 Spartan Helmet Maximus Muscle Armor & Leather Leg Arm Guard - Halloween Costume - Christmas Gift

Let's be clear, with armour this cheap you expect to get what you pay for, but I'm happy to say I got more than that. The low price is mostly reflected in the build quality of the bracers and greaves which have a cardboard base. I'm not expecting them to last more than a year or even a single wet event but the armour and helmet are actually very good.The steel isn't thick but it's a struggle to bend, the edges have been rolled or flattened and the base paint job is a good basecoat or would work fine on it's own. The Helmet is a good fit on an adult head although, given that I intend to larp in it, I may secure the straps with a stronger glue. I have yet to test it by falling over on it but I expect it will survive without too much deformation given that I've tried to deliberately bend it with no success. The breastplate and backplate feel sturdy and fit very well with a good amount of adjustment possible for chest size or layers.All in all, if you're looking for armour to modify for cosplay or to try out a heavy larp fighter without spending multiple hundreds, I'd highly recommend this.Five stars because not only did I get what I expected, it actually exceeded expectations, and the seller was very quick to reply to questions. Would buy from again.
