My pauldrons and gorget:

I like the shoulder and arm coverage these pauldrons give me, and the collar protection the gorget gives me. The gorget is two pieces (front and back) that attach together with thick leather straps, and the gorget has thick leather straps with which to attach the pauldrons. I’ve managed to find the best positioning for both sets of strappings so I can put on and take off the whole group as one thing. That is, I don’t have to assemble and disassemble all the pieces to put on or take off. I can even don and doff it all by myself (no squire needed).
