OMP Mountain Man Vented
Very Good
Ranked #3 of 6 arm guards
$14.99
The OMP Mountain Man is the entry into leather bracers — vented suede with a two-strap hook-and-loop closure, seven inches of classic traditional look for fifteen dollars. It gives a recurve or longbow the leather aesthetic that a molded plastic guard can't, without the price of a hand-tooled one. The suede is vented to breathe, and the two straps hold it steady through the shot.
Standout feature: Vented suede leather at $15 — the affordable traditional bracer.
