Looks like my start to this will be in asking for some help. :D
I am trying to pick out some of my soft parts first and want to make sure they will meet the CRL before buying them.
First up the gloves:
Option 1 Over all I like the look of these better but did notice when zooming in there is a slight decoration on the cuffs. Option 2 These look like the should be fine since there is no decorations on them but to me they don't look very durable. Now this may not be a problem since I will not be working in them but I would hope that they will last for a several years.

Next up are the boots:
Option 1 and Option 2 These might be the same boots, but from the reviews the pair offered by Gentleman's Emporium look to be higher quality. They both have a reviewers saying they had issues with the soles coming off. And then here is Option 3 These are the ones that I am currently leaning towards.

That is it for right now, tonight I will try to get a picture up with my should armor template to see if it is the right size.

The cuffs will be covered by the bracers and gloves.

I would Go with the non decorated gauntlet. As far as the boots, those are actually all the same Captain style boot.

Boots look all the same style so you should buy the one with the best rating.
I would like to see option 2 in gloves.

Thank you for the input earlier. Here is a couple of pictures of the shoulder guard I made.

Does the armor look like it is scaled right?

Thats pretty much the right ratio to your arm. So everything should be fine.

I will probably be ordering a FP bucket next paycheck and was wondering if it is worth getting their liner too or is it an optional part?
