Welcome to The Most Underrated Armor Thread. Here share your thoughts and opinions on armor that you feel is underrated. (Any armor from 1k to FoW)
I'll start with a few in which i believe are underrated
1. Sacred- In my opinion this is a very nice monk set
2. Mesmer Tyrian (Stylish)- I think this is a very unappreciated armor set
3. Warrior Tyrian- I think it has a nice medieval look to it
4. Warrior Elite Dragon- I think this armor is amazing, fairly good detail and a nice skin
5. Ranger Tyrian/Leather- To me this set feels like a ranger set, a little simple yet good looking

Luxon armor, in general, I find to be pretty underrated. All the sets are awesome.

i also like the elite canthan male warrior armour, but its not that common compared to some elite armour types.

15k Bonelace

Female Mesmer Primeval - It more Mesmery than most of their crap.
Female Warrior Ancient - Seriously, this armor is rules. Not too reavealing, but not too tin can.
Elite Profane - just looks cool.
Male Rangers Elite Luxon - Just doesn't get the praise it should.
Female Dervish Ancient - I think it's cute damn it.
Assassin FoW - That's right folks, a FoW set being underrated, nearly unheard of, but I think this is the best looking sin armor in the game.
Female Warrior knightly/templar - best non elite warrior armor in my opinion.

Obviously someone is going to have one of the armor sets mentioned...
Furthermore-in my opinion I feel that it is an underrated set, wether you agree or not, well frankly i do not care. (Same goes for the other 2 sets you have)
MithranArkanere
Elementalist Krytan Female Armor.
White, with 'wings' and can be dyed gold.
It matches perfectly with a White Moa.
Nothing, absolutely nothing is better than that.

Tatile
Necromancer Ascalon armour. I don't see it worn often, but it sure makes a girl's legs look good.
Shuuda
In truth, partically every (or at least most) 1K armors are underrated.

Warrior tyrian for males. Beautiful. One of the few sets that doesn't make you look fat.
Also, Assassin Shing Jea is really sweet for guys, everything else has too many blades and shit
Aaaaaaaand Necromancer Krytan is gorgeous.

15k Canthan Elite Ranger Armor Male
15k Elite Fur lined ranger armor Male
I got both of those sets for my ranger. Dyed it all white and both armors look amazing. I must get in my opinion.
These armors just dont get the praise they should.

I think some of the Tyrian armors are among the best looking in the game and are generally taken for granted.
Tryian Necro (male) is a diehard favorite of mine.

1k Monk Canthan -Male. I have looked at all other monk armours, and I do not believe that any look as good as it does.
However my favourite armour set of all time is still Male Warrior Elite Kurzick. Zhou will probably be wearing it until GW 2

Well, a lot of my very most favorite armors are quite popular, so they're not really underrated. There are some though that I really like and almost never see:
-15k Canthan Ritualist (female) - I love this set. It has such a venomous, alien, witch-doctor vibe to it. I think I almost never see it because it's found right next to the crafter for the ever-popular 15k Imperial.
-1k Tyrian Mesmer (female) - Most mesmer armor is quite flamboyant, giving the wearer a ton of aristocratic attitude. This one is much more understated, achieving elegance through simplicity. The velvety coat is beautiful with any dark dye mix (and plain gray looks exactly like old black).
-Vabbian Monk (female) - Female monks have many lovely options for armor, and so most end up in something cheaper (or more prestigious like FoW). But this glossy, richly detailed armor set is one of my absolute favorites and was totally worth getting for Sax, even though recently she's been wearing something else that doesn't clip with her cape. I actually like that I rarely see it around - makes her stand out more.

Male Sunspear necro armor. Come on, chicken armor! I love it but most of my friends seem to want to rip my throat everytime I wear it x].
cebalrai
Mesmer Primeval fo' sho...
WinterSnowblind
Warrior Ancient. Best Warrior set in the game, in my opinion. But I rarely see anyone wearing it.
Phaedra Firesoul
Female Ranger Asuran armor, though i'm starting to see this more.
Masao
15k Drakescale and Furlined Female Ranger sets.
All I ever see is Druid's, Ancient or Dwarven.

Most guys look past this one - I still think it's one of the best male sets:
Also this one is quite rare:
It's different, it' not perfect (the shoes are bad) - but it's very interesting.
Although a LOT of people hate this set - I love it:
It's seriously wicked!
Also the luxon set is sweet:
This is the reason why I keep my ranger around:
The best ele armour. Not only is it tailored heavenly - it dyes like a dream:
One of my ritus favourite sets:

A lot of the prophesies collector armor and the 1k or 1.5 k sets.....
I love ranger and ele prophesies collector armor and 1.5k female warrior luxon. A lot of the other low cost ones too.

15k Canthan Elite Female Assassin - By far the best looking Assassin Armor in the game IMO. Yet I just don't see SIN's wearing this very cool female armor.
1k Kurz Female Assassin Armor - This armor out shines anything any armor vendor in eye of the north can offer. I also think its nicer than most 15k SIN armors.

all vabbian armor, very nice armor sets
Marty Silverblade
Alot of the Prophecies 15k Ranger sets, they're nice.
Warrior Elite Dragon, which I have.
The 1k monk armor that looks like the one Mhenlo has, also very nice.

The most underrated sets of armor in the game are any male sets that aren't FoW.
Male armor sets never get the praise they're due.

Shing Jea/Canthan is teh bomb.
I've always wanted a EOTN reskin of them in prestige version lol, so it would actually be an item of choice rather than chosen out of availability.
edit: same with some of the non-elite kurzick/luxon armours
