RFB Veteran Greaves

LET ME TELL YOU A WAR STORY, LADDIE…

Whether a novice or a veteran you rely on sturdy armour to protect you. Epic Armoury’s RFB Veteran Greaves are elegant leather Greaves designed to protect your shins. The armour is constructed from chrome-tanned split leather and carefully stitched around the edges to create a simple yet aesthetic design. The armour is secured to the leg by sturdy leather straps and brass buckles.

Hemmed with additional soft split leather to keep the armour from deforming with excessive wear, this leg-guard will withstand any LARP abuse, you might force on it. The greaves match our Veteran Armour and Bracers, but have a distinct, neutral style that will fit with almost any combination of costuming, when you craft your LARP kit for your next adventure.

HISTORY

• May also be referred to as a schynbald, only protecting the front of the lower leg
• The word greave comes from the Old French greve, which means “shin,” or “shin armour”
