I made this for my late Roman/Germanic kit a couple of years ago. The tunic has been worn a few times, but the trousers never have been worn. I based both pieces of clothing from Thorsberg Moor.

This set of clothing has been dated to early as the 4th century. I modified the pattern some by not splitting the cuffs as on the original, I also added tablet woven trim to the cuffs. I also eliminated the feet on the trousers. I figured it was cleaner to leave the feet off of the pants and just use footwraps or woolen socks. They can be laundered much easier than a full set of wool trousers.

The tunic has hand sewn hem line on the neck, but the lower hem is left raw.

The tunic will fit a 40-42 chest and the trousers will fit a 34 to 36 waist.

I would like 80 shipped CONUS for both pieces. I might even have a cloak for this kit for an additional price....I will have to see if I still have it.
