Greaves

Greaves (すねあて, Suneate) are a type of equipment available in several games of the Suikoden series. They were localized as Leggings in the 1996 English localization of Suikoden.

Greaves are a weak, but effective, early game piece of accessory equipment.

Information

These shin guards are literally equipped over the shin of the wearer's foot. Made with iron and leather, they are designed so that they do not get in the wearer's way or impede their movement. These basic pieces of equipment were popular among warriors.
