13th century Irishman?

I'm curious what type of armour/garb a mid-to-late 13th century Irishman would wear?
Are there any good historical examples of said persona?

Aye, Wil, I fight with one. Purchased it from Roderick at Mandrake Armoury. I love it and will never go back to the ole' butt ugly basket hilt.

Sir Sarnac, wouldn't the price of having your current lamellar treated and then re-powdercoated, cost near the price of say, a new stainless set of lamellar from WMA or GAA -- or were you saying that those weren't the correct shape needed? Or is the stainless the issue? Adam sent me enough for a ves...

Wanted - Greathelm

Anyone have a greathelm (preferred) or sugarloaf for sale?
The cheaper the better, as it doesn't have to be pretty -- I'm thinking of powdercoating it locally.
I have a 23 1/2 head, just so ya know.

EDIT -- For SCA heavy combat use, please.

Fort used for Heavy battles at Pennsic?

Greetings all,

I'm not looking to start a general panic or anything, so apologies in advance if I have been misinformed, but rumor has it that the fort will NOT be used for Heavy Battles this year.

Is there any validity to this rumor?
