Alright, /k/.
So I've been looking into basic home made armors, and I'm not talking about like, Mad Max shit, just something to protect me from a baseball bat, and or light blunt force trauma.
My main focus, or general idea is something like plated, with kydex with EVA foam padding, but was told that would fall apart and I'd get my shit rekt. Just general discussion I guess, or ideas. Not looking for anything fancy.

Frankly? Other anons got it right. And for blunt trauma, you either want some heavy padding or rigid plates, preferably combination of the two.

Now, the basic-most thing would be elbow and knee caps, a bike helmet or a steel pot (but the milsurp ones ring like a motherfucker) and for the chest, if you want to nigga-rig something, you might have a go at making a breastplate of sorts, either metal or, dunno, layers of fiberglass. Saw a dude make himself a vest that stopp'd a 9mm from, dunno, 14 layers of 6oz fiberglass fabric bound with latex.

Remember, against blunt force, hard surfaces like head, collar bones and joints are vulnerable.

Bike gear.
DYI. Gambeson but counting needed time and expenses buying bike gear most probably would end up better.

Protect your bony bits - elbows, knees, skull and collar bones.

Just buy a full set of hockey equipment, even a hockey stick is a pretty good melee weapon.

The best I can think of is looking into what HEMA people wear, Skallagrim (YouTube) has videos on this.

HEMA gear has to be very mobile and flexible but be able to take the hit from a blunt lonsword with out breaking your arm or hand.

Lacrosse gear
Motorcycle jackets
Plastic lamellar (pre-made or made from home depot buckets and paracord).
Padded compression
Leather weightlifting belt for kidney protection.
Motocross gear.
Carpet turned inside out. Cut to fit.
