ISO Armour

[shanmonster]

I'm looking for armour for a friend. Do you know anyone who makes high-quality leather, chain, or plate armour and sells out of or ships to Canada? Do you know anyone who has some in stock?

Bob Basset appears to make some high quality stuff (haven't bought from him personally, but have heard good things from those who have):

Crap there was a booth at Anime North this year that sold fantastically beautiful leather armor and corsets and the like, but I can't remember their name. I'll try and see if any of my friends who went did.

what does "ISO" mean? "Is seeking out"?

As a larper who enjoys being able to run around without an extra 10+ lbs, I go with fine link butcher's chain. http://www.ringmesh.com/ Though it certainly can be worn underneath plate and the leather made equivalent.

I've heard you have to be careful with where you get your chainmail from. Do you know someone who has ordered from these people before?

Three of my friends and I all own a t-shirt style one. Many many other various fellow larpers I play with also have them. Super light and has actually protected me from a few sharp sticks trying to kill me during events. I've only ever had two of the rings pop off and I have owned it for 4 years or so. (and I larp pretty heavily)
