They reach from below the knee and narrow around the ankles, and are secured with two adjustable straps of premium leather. The chain mail and backplate further protect the calves, giving your legs full coverage.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Persian Greaves are designed to match Epic Armoury's Roman collection, but can be mixed and matched to suit your character's unique costume.

Metal armor containing leather components requires separate leather care. Read the \"Leather Belts and Accessories\" section below for leather cleaning and maintenance using leather care products.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003e Degrease and prepare your armor for use\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eWhen you open your armor, you may be overwhelmed by the smell of grease and oil. The oil has been applied to protect your armor during storage and transport. Use a degreasing product or mineral spirits and a dry cloth or paper towels to remove all the oil from the plate armor pieces. It's a little more difficult to remove all the oil from chain mail links, but it can be done the same way. Wipe off as much as you can with a dry cloth, and with the remaining oil, you can degrease the chain mail with mineral spirits or another solvent by spraying it on the links. You can also choose to completely submerge your chain mail in a degreasing product and use your hands to agitate the metal in the solution; this will completely remove all the oil and grease from your links. After removing the oil, be sure to dry the armor thoroughly. Bright, warm sunlight is excellent for drying your armor, but you can also use a hair dryer or heat gun to speed up the process. Be careful not to overheat any piece of leather when using a heat gun.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003ch4\u003eCleaning\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Moisture is the enemy of armor and chain mail. If your armor gets wet, it's important to dry it thoroughly as soon as possible. After handling, use, or after six months of storage or display, all metal should be wiped with a clean cloth. Lightly oil the cleaned surface with a quality, acid-free vegetable oil. Alternatively, you can apply a coat of wax to the entire surface of the exposed metal. Let the wax dry for a couple of hours, then lightly buff it with a soft cloth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003e Prevention and elimination of rust\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eStore your armor in a dry place and check it every two months for signs of rust. If you find any, remove it by gently rubbing the affected area with a mildly abrasive pad moistened with wax or quality acid-free vegetable oil. \u003cstrong\u003eEpic Dark products\u003c\/strong\u003e are specially treated to resist rust, but should still be treated with oil and stored in a dry place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003e Leather belts and accessories\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Clean them by removing dirt with a stiff brush, then gently scrub with leather soap and a clean, damp cloth until the leather appears clean. Remove the soap with a separate damp cloth to clean any soap residue, and then use a dry cloth to wipe away any remaining water from the leather.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eYou should always condition leather after cleaning it, as the soap will have removed some of its natural oils. Treat the leather with mink oil, olive oil, or beeswax using a clean cloth, gently rubbing a small amount of oil or wax into the leather in circles. Allow the leather to soak in the oil before wiping it with a final clean cloth to remove excess residue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"anexo\"\u003e At \u003cstrong\u003eTienda Medieval,\u003c\/strong\u003e we have thousands of functional medieval and reenactment products.
