A good tip is to get cottons, linens, and wools for clothing.

Yeah, the polyester has a secondary problem of being intolerable in the heat if they don’t breathe. Cotton, hemp, rayon blends and linen are all good.

I think all the tunics look great on you. Another source for you might be Destash Central- lots of gently used garb & accessories get posted there, and they include measurements.

Hope you have a blast at Gulf! Hit up some bardic circles and I will live vicariously through your content.

you can pull off a cloak with that pin and just a square of wool or a wool blanket. there are good tutorials on here

Very late comment here of  ourse, but  mideval belts are worn higher then we do in modern times. Looks quite a bit better too that way.

Medieval collectables is a website that has medieval clothing. It can be a little more expensive than Amazon but definitely is not as expensive as most websites for medieval items. I have to say please please never wear the long johns that look like underwear to a sca event. I know you won’t but please never ever do that. Enjoy 😉

My buddy is getting Knighted there it's the top rank in the Armoured rattan combat. If you fall in love with the event come to Pennsic wars in the summer.

Given it was an SCA event, I don’t think you’d get the scrutiny of going to, say, the 500th anniversary reenactment of Pavia 1525. I hope the gig went well! And, yep, I’d stay away from synthetic cloths and stick to linens for against-the-skin clothes with a wool cloak to cover. That written, in high school, under threat of getting an “F”, we were made to participate inna school RenFaire. I don’t remember everything I got from the local store, as I had $0 budget, but I remember I wore wore black dress shoes & white thermal pants for leggings! Stuff even the SCA would’ve drawn a line on! 🤣

I am a member of sca. I am in the rusted woodlands shire. My sca name is Franz. I hope you enjoy your event and I hope you go to more events

LOL!  You remind me of me.  Just trying hard to put something together that is comfortable and looks half decent.  Finding cotton anymore is challenging I have found.  I figure as long as I don't show up in shorts and a T-shirt I am festive.😄

6:50 look really good, I think I will buy that one. Brown too

id say try some of the items together within similar color families like the long green tunic, the black or brown leggings,  and the brown cap with long things, then accesorize with your hat and such. but i hope you found a setup you like and had a fun time.

You should have gotten your tunic from Grimfrost in linen.

11:00 It's called a coif and the flaps would be tied and can be worn under a hat or helmet. Hope i helped!

Also Tandy leather has ring belts of actual leather

The thing you got for a cloak pin is a "penannular brooch". Enjoy Gulfwars, it's a blast.

Peasants didn’t wear colors like blue. They were only allowed to wear drab colors. If you wore brighter colors then that meant you were higher like a merchant or artist.

good ass video. really like your personality, but came for the topic.
i saw another commenter point this out, but yeah, your belt is suposed to sit on top of your hips, not where you would wear your pant belt. i will look at the other vids on your channel, might subscribe. keep it up!

these stuff are just re-sell from temu and such.
and other mayor sites, as mytholon or epic armoury

Good video. Etsy is a great place to buy too

This will be my first Gulf Wars also. BTW there will be a lot of vendors at the war too
