ya just use hidden safety pins. only u will know. or mark where you want it to sit and put a few cheater stitches with the same color thread as the mantle. and sew it in place

Awesome idea for the chausses Sir Wolf, thank you!

It's the Bocksten tunic in wool, the 'one size' option. I'm about 5'10" and thin, and it fits fairly well, much better than my revival linen.

Thanks, as far as the rondel, it's one of the most documented daggers appropriate for my little niche in the timeline, I probably could have done a ballock dagger as well, but rondels look nice and mean to me :)
Thanks for the feedback gentlemen!
Sir Gerard de Rodes:
Very Dapper gentlemen.
Don`t forget your head wear, it wasn`t the done thing for men of rank to be seen outdoors without head covering ;) A nice Chaperon would go great.

Excellent Sir Gerard, thank you!
Are simple linen coifs not appropriate for men of station? What about underneath something fancier like a wool brimmed hat?
Sir Gerard de Rodes:
Yes I`m sure that would do just fine ;)
