These tassets are crafted from 18 gauge steel - the three large steel pieces are crafted from riveted plates of steel - they are segmented and articulated. These steel plates are blackened on the inside and have integrated leather belt loops. These plates are fitted onto the accompanying wide leather belt. This leather belt is adjustable due to its adjustable metal buckles and leather straps. The belt also has adjustable suspender straps which help keep the tassets up by putting its weight on the shoulders.
