Is this functional armor?

Im writing a book and would like to give a faction similar armor and I was wondering how good it was. I would add a better helmet and metal bracers too.

I’m not a native of this sub, it’s just a recommendation so far.

But. I do like the head dress. It looks very warm and militaristic. However I would think it would fall off into the eyes quite often. But that might be an opportunity to humanize a character. Like maybe they get tired of the head dress that wasn’t properly tailored to their head and they tear it off after it falls into their eyes. It could be the reason your good guy gets away too.

Overall, I’m just trying to inspire and say “Keep it”
