I had some fingered gauntlets from them that I sold, they make some nice stuff but I will be honest, for their prices you can get better quality and accuracy, their stuff is very loosely accurate and more larpy, but solid construction.
They do a great job with clothing and shoes from my experience but their armor won't satisfy someone who wants "real" armor.
In that price range I would go with someone else, Armorysmith are what I chose to go with, have to contact them for pricing and a lot of pieces are not up on their new website, but their Bascinet Griffon is in the same price range.
Of course there are other very talented armorers out there, most have a longer wait time than Armstreet.

I really like the Armet “Griffon”. I also like that they have really good pictures and videos of their products. Thanks again.

Thanks again. No problem, mind that they are Ukranian, but communication has been decent for me, they can take a while to respond to emails. A lot of their products are also made and designed for sport like HMB, but they also do reconstruction. The griffon is a sport style I believe, so not historically accurate but it is very nice. You also have to ask for lining in the helmet seperate, just a heads up! Their wait time when i ordered was about 6 months.

Thanks again. Good to know about the lining. If the wait is going to be 6 months, that will be tough but if I am going to spend the money I want it to be worth it.
