I might still use the 15 oz for the torso, underneath the breast, shoulders,and back plates...just for that extra protection....and move to thinner stuff for down the legs and arms.

Thomas....

If this is for SCA use..don't listen to the people telling you that it limits yoru vision and breathing. I know many people in the SCA (Malegetnia) That use similar helms and they fight just fine!

Pluss you can always have air holes srilled afterward!
