I have these on my warrior and they have kinda an off gold or tan color to them. However, with the advent of dyes from LoY, you can pretty much make them any color you want. I made mine a nice silver color so my warrior looks like he's all covered in shiney steel.
Terrible brown color on them I think.. G onna replace mine with Champions Greaves (Thurg) as soon as I get the gems, won the drop in Kael plate cycle, Yay me :)
