I'm after some upper leg arm, I believe they're called tassets but the only ones I can find are really short and pretty much just cover the hip. I'm sick of having no armour on my legs hit points wise, but greaves drive me mental and it's my thighs that get the bruises.
Ideally, I want something that hangs from a belt but also has a strap around the thigh. They need to extend to the knee or at least 3/4 of the way. I'd consider shipping from the States if the price wasn't too prohibitive. Any ideas? Or is this a custom order job?
Edit: Seems I forgot to say leather. I'm after leather or something that looks like it.
Thanks,
Hayley

It sounds like it's actually three-quarter leg harness you want, rather than tassets -- tassets protect the hips & the very tops of the thighs, but not the rest of the legs.
Alternatively you could just get a long mail skirt.
Here's Norton's 3/4 leg harness, if you don't mind plastic:

Or you could try Three Brothers -- Czech-based, but apparently very good:

Alternatively, ebay, from America or India or another 3rd world country, and just eat up the postage.

If you have ebay, do a search for "Fortress armouries", message him and he can probably do them for you. I paid less than £30 for greaves and arm braces Inc delivery, and they were awesome.
