PSA Reinforced Leather is better than Banded!

[Jimjam]

Reinforced armour has the same AC as banded, but with a much lower weight!

This is true for the following slots:

Face,

Neck,

Boots.

If you want to min max your banded armour set, your best bet is to swap those three slots out for reinforced leather and save a couple of pounds.

Also, everyone knows leather boots look way cooler than chainmail socks!
