Disclaimers: I have not bought from them. I am by no means an armor expert. I am only offering my opinion.


Just looking at the pictures on the website I don't like it. I have never purchased from them, and I would not.

A lot of the peices look... funky. Even to my very untrained eye, I do not like the lines/shape on most of the stuff.

The prices are very low. A lot of it looks like the stuff you can get off ebay tho, and it's usualy listed there for a bout half of what they want. This suggests to me that they use the same cheap indian imports as the guys on e-bay.

Over all I do not think you would be particularly happy with anything they had to offer.

Are they from India?

Most of them just look "off" to me... The proportions I mean.

Like if you size a pic longer, in the vertical only.

I hate to say anything bad about anyone's armour but this is just my opinion.
I don't think I even said anything bad about the Evil Denizen Overlord's armour.

So ya get what ya pay for.
