I fought as a Roman within the SCA for a decade +<br>
This year some of us made the switch to Spartan...<br>
<br>
New gear.... bronzed Corinthians, bronzed Aspis (shields), very white linothorax, red horse hair crests...<br>

Interesting...<br>
<br>
It's pretty neat to see a line of Corinthian helmets with shields...It does give you an idea on how intimidating the helmets could have actually been.<br>
<br>
...Are those sneakers based on an obscure Greek reference?<br>
<br>
Where did you get the helmets and shields made? and what are they made from? <p></p><i></i>

Hi Hibernicus,<br>
<br>
They're great photos, and looks a load of fun.<br>
<br>
I gotta say it must be really unnerving for the enemy to see a big shield wearing sneakers running at them ....<br>
