It's all a matter of personal taste, IMHO, each to their own.

In the domain of LARP'ing cosplaying I'll take The Grey Company* over these SMOTJQ+ Templar wannabe's any day, and with all due respect to Great Horses that can suffer the weight of a full tin can and chain mail insert I prefer, and own, the Waler (and Kimberley stock variations)**.
