I like it, May I ask where you got the tunic? It looks rather nice and would like to get one.

Very nice, Sir Nathan. Accessories look great & finish it off. Surcoat & cloak look very soft. Nice work!!

Thanks guys!  :)

Ulrich, the tunic is called a cappa-clausa and was the basic daily "Uniform" for the Teutonic Knights. I got this one made for me by BJ, and as usual she did a great job.

You can cheat and replicate the look by wearing a long white sleeved garment underneath your surcoat.  ;)

Awesome! It looks great!

Man, Sir Nathan is going to knock 'em dead at DoK.

Thanks Sir Ed  :)

Sir Wolf, in addition to my hood, I also have a head coif which I forgot was in my forage bag at the time of shooting.

Saw it on Facebook, very nice! Between your kit, Ian's kit, Sir Edward's kit, Ulrich's kit,
and my kit, we're going to make a heck of a showing for the Order at Days of Knights!

Oh, with all of us running around armored up, I'm also going to put Squire Chris in light armor, too (my 14th century german splinted harness, w/the GDFB bascinet). But he doesn't know it yet. ;)

Accessories really sell the kit and make it seem real.  It completes the illusion that the clothing is really live in, and not a costume.  Very very well done Sir Nathan!  Can't wait to see it!

Thanks Guys! It really is the details, In is spot-on.

I do suppose I am at an advantage at getting monastic accessories, being Catholic and all  ;)
