    A little update...I was at work last night and we were clearing out/replacing old SRT gear. Included in that clear-out were old body armor carriers (the garment that holds the ballistic panels). Part of the vests that connect it at a user's sides is a heavy, padded and breathable mesh, like that used in heavy duty sports equipment. I removed that side-mesh from the garment and sewed it to the insides of the Greaves. This will help the skin on my shins breather/sweat and should make it way more comfy to wear. Hopefully I have enough to put on the Vambraces...lol.

    I'll get pics up later tonight

        Agreed but I have to wait and get the brass buckles. In the mean-time though, I've added 2" wide elastic to the top and bottom of each Greave and ran out before I could add the center strap...lol. The straps/buckles will go right where the elastic straps are, and on top of them because that will keep the buckles off my skin.

        Here are the pics in their current state:
