Leg Armor

Leg protection evolved from simple wrappings to more advanced designs such as greaves made of metal plates attached to leather stockings. These designs progressed into three-piece greaves, eventually developing into more sophisticated plate legs that covered thighs and knees. With the spread of plate armor in the late Middle Ages, leg gear became more perfected, including knee protection and beaked metal shoes. In modern times, leg protection remains an essential part of equipment for LARP, reenactment, or show combat, providing an authentic and powerful appearance, whether combined with chainmail, other armor pieces, or worn over basic garments.

Throughout history, the evolution of leg gear from simple wrappings to sophisticated plate legs underscores the crucial role of leg protection for soldiers during warfare, a necessity that remains relevant in contemporary reenactments and combat displays.
