I plan to place my Shin plates over them

[Ori Dart]

Those look pretty cool, actually. They're made of a nylon cordura material, right? I think they might be ok.

[Jacad Moonstar]

Yes, with Polycarbonate plates in them. The Straps are Nylon webbing.

[Zolar Kresh]

Do they come in other colors?

Will wait for an app team member, but I think they would be okay as spats.

[Jacad Moonstar]

Yep, they come in tan, Orange, blue and brown

[Zolar Kresh]

well I looked at the site and they are n the expensive side for still needing modding

[Niabi]

I believe there are a couple of OM's who use them as a base for shins as long as there are no visible logos i don't see why they would not be approvable.

[Remo Jadd]

They'll be ok as long as you add armour to them. 

[Jacad Moonstar]

Yeah, I'm just going to add my shin plates on them. Boot plates don't look as nice on them

[Remo Jadd]

What material are they made from?.

[pinocchio]

I don't see a problem with them, just weather to match.

[Jacad Moonstar]

1000 denier Cordura Nylon encasing polycarbonate inserts

[Remo Jadd]

Right, interesting. As Pinocchio said just weather them up.

i have looked all over for this style where did you find them .. i like them and would like to use them but i can only find the bigger bulkier ones not the ones that look this neat

Khaki and the olive green.

[Oryan Nightstalker]

awsome im sure i can diy them black tomatch thanks for the info

[Dar'manda]

just asking but why would armor have to go over these?

[Remo Jadd]

They don't. it was just a suggestion, but i do think they'd look better with it. 

[Dar'manda]

I just thought it would be a cool look for spec ops or a tech mando, that is why I suggested it to Jacad

[Hondo Karr]

Armor them or theyre no good... too recoginizable as real world snake guards otherwise. It's bad enough we accept catchers shins because of the Mara Jade loophole. These would be fine as a base, as long I can't see em.

That said, for the price... doesn't seem like a great investment choice for modding unless you have an old pair laying around that aren't in use.

[pinocchio]

I would most definately armor them

+10.

These things use velcro and shiny nylon in their construction.  Very much a recognizable earth garnment, and would detract from the other-worldly feel of the star wars. 

a suitable replacement made from more swarzy fabrics could be made any competent seamstress in a day.

REALY , i had no idea what they were for , far as less being real worldly . But hay i'm sure if there's plenty of snakes around where you stay then they'd be easily recognised

[Dar'manda]

armor them really? As soon as I saw them I thought legacy armor. How many people  know what snake guards are, especially people do conventions?

[Spanner Murraan]

Really. 

I do conventions, and so do all my other Herpetology friends.
