halves, fixed together using brass rings. |

The greek hoplite
had to protect his legs which were not covered by his big round shield.
He therefore equipped himself with greaves. They were usually made of
bronze, thick enough to protect the warrior but thin enough to be opened
to put them on. |

- Thorax (brass) - 299€ - Pictures The main difference between this armor and our AC125 thorax is the material used : it is made of brass. It is a bit longer, too, and more decorated. The two halves are closed by putting pins in the side and top hinges. |

| AM161 - Lorica Hamata, 6mm iron rivetted flat rings with washers, - 499€ - Pictures This chainmail is made of 6mm steel riveted rings with washers - the most accurate ones for roman re-enactors. The shape is the one in use during the first century, and the beginning of the second. The
main advantage of this mail is its historical accuracy. The use of steel
instead of normal iron allows to gain on weigth : its weigths is almost
the half oof any "classical" mail one. |

Any metallic body armor may be extremely inconfortable to suport, unless you wear a padded clothing undernath. Raomn soldiers were no exception, and used a special cloth as protection, called subarmalis, and thoracomachus at the end of the empire. This reproduction is made of padded cotton fabric.
|
|
This is another kind of subarmalis, made of leather and with richly ornamented "Pteruges".
