A slightly more indepth answer, mostly for the original poster's benefit:

Armor types (plate/chain/cloth/etc) don't actually exist in this game. All that matters is what classes and races (in rare cases, dieties) are listed on the who-can-wear-it listing on the item statistics. Otherwise, armor types are simply a graphical difference, and there are cases of chain classes that can wear plate, plate classes who choose to use chain or leather items even at high level, a rare few plate items for "cloth" classes, and so forth. Calling a class in this game a plate or chain class is more of a general term referring to the most common sort of items they tend to wear--it isn't a hard, built-in limitation like you see in some other online games.

Most items in this game have no level requirement, either. You can wear the vast majority of items at level 1, including the majority of no-drop items if you somehow obtain them.
