The Blackened Markward Greaves features a simple yet elegant design, showing off a dark metal finish and smooth curves on the sides of the top. A central bend runs down the front, adding strength and stiffness to the steel greaves. The leg armour looks great with other medieval armour, especially other Markward-style pieces. It works great for LARP events, re-enactments, the Renaissance fair, and more. We recommend wearing padded arming wear beneath these metal greaves for increased comfort. Create a fantastic rogue or mercenary ensemble with the help of top-notch plate armour like these greaves.

Really like these, they have held up well. Needed a little bending to fit the size of my leg better but that took all of 10 minutes. Very happy with these.

Cool and stylish especially compared to other greaves. I like the extra ankle protection and straight lines and this will be appreciated by somebody with really long shins, but still looked good on somebody like me with shorter legs, just expect them to cover your knees.

Solid and lots of room for adjustment. Come in package a little wide but a quick press can form them easily. Takes a minute to figure out where to seat them on your shin so they don’t rub your kneecap.
