Leather - Jerkins & More at Ravenswood Leather

Wow. Ravenswood Leather harbors a truly impressive array of stunning, high quality leather jerkins (among other amazing pieces!). Not really for folks on a budget, but if you are looking to indulge yourself, head on over and take a gander! Not only do they have a commendable selection of various styles and cuts of jerkin, but the level of customization is what truly sets them apart. You can choose your own combination of leather colors, grommet colors, closures (a whole slew of 'em!), AND various optional sleeve styles! Design your own dream-jerkin! Prices aren't too exorbitant considering it's leather, and it's fashionable, but neither are they dirt cheap.

But the fun doesn't stop there, my friends. They ALSO have gauntlets, greaves, bodices, pants, baldrics, pouches--the list goes on and on! I could (and have) spent days poring over their extensive collection of impressive pieces.

Footwear - Planetshoes.com

A friend of mine recently directed me to Planetshoes.com, a great online retailer of--you guessed it--shoes! Well by shoes I mean shoes and boots. And by shoes and boots I also mean some nice bags. Look, they have all manner of awesome stuff. Their prices honestly run the gamut from some knock-your-socks-off clearance prices to the over $100 mark of what you'd expect for a nice pair of boots.
I was fairly impressed with what they had in the way of modern male footwear that could work reasonably well in a game setting. Of course if you're simply looking to sport some stylish urban-fantasy garb then of course their stuff works as well. I was much more impressed by their spread of women's boots, which I suppose shouldn't be surprising since there's always a wealth of interesting footwear out there for the ladies.


They also had a few nice messenger bags that, while a bit feminine, could make decent fancy-pants satchels in a LARP setting.

All in all the site's definitely worth a peek, and I'd recommend checking their Sale and Clearance sections every so often to see what gems are up for cheap prices!
