The Armour Archive

ok its only sorta a presale. more like a post sale, sold out, reordered, life took a left turn, gotta pay for stuff on order, sale.

the shorter tunics with the key hole neck hole - we had em at GW last year. oh and lillies. well we sold through all of em and i thought i ordered a few and didnt. i ordered a lot. and i gotta pay for em soon. and short of grabbing a gun and heading over to the 7-11 im gonna be short SO- SALE!!

I dont have the exact sizing info on me nor can i post pics BUT i will by this time tomorrow. and these are things that have only been available at wars and arnt on the web site - YET - but will be with this order so look for them there soon at regular prices. but this is a sale so whats normally 45-55$ depending on size is all 39$ regardless of size. and speaking of sizes the break out is thus - M, L, XL. you might have noticed there is no XXL. But these are the smallest we have gone yet too. exact sizing should be up tomorrow with pics.

heres how this goes if this is your first go round with these things - shoot me money via paypal and make sire you state in the comments what size and colour and when they get here i send em to ya. it will only be about 3 weeks before they are on my stoop so its a short wait!

100% linen, all hand dyed, all french seamed, gored at the sides and under the arms and its a round neck hole with a key hole slit. they are about 8 inches shorter in the hem to shoulder measure so they hit me bout mid upper thigh (6'4") and period wise make a fairly generic works for most areas tunic.

if ya picked one up at GW or some other event and wanna be famous feel free to post your pic of you in it.

Would two shirts and a smurf hat fit in an $8 box? That is, if you have any 23.5" to 24" hats right now... Either way, I'm in for two shirts.




Marcus

Yep it'll fit. Hats are 20$ and I'll go through em tonight and see about size and colours and get some pics.

So to be clear, the preorder price is ONLY for the keyhole short tunics?

Will you be at Lilies this year?

Adric, I would be interested in a dark red, burgandy or dark green. Will any of those be a problem?

I know we tried red before and it came out looking more pink than red.

Cuhelyn

Which would be a very period color:)
Some of my favorite linen pants are salmon:)

Adric is starting a new trend, Queer Eye for The Early Period Guy(s)

I'll take a period blue and period brown in L. Do I PM you for payment details?

I don't see the short tunics on your web site.

Is this an armour archive only sale?

They are not up on the web site yet. It's a face book & AA presale and will be on the web site when they get here.

As for orders - just PayPal money or shoot me a pm and we can figure out payment options.

I need to sell more rattan .....

Am interested pending photos and sizing info. Probably two, maybe three.

I'll take the same. I'm thinking that I need to send you funds with that in the description. Cool?

Send money, put size and colour in the comments.

Do these leggings make my arse look large?

Nope, but your arse sure makes those leggings seem tight.

Maybe I should head on down to wew.linengarb.com and order some Rus pants. Good for fighting, and hella fashionable!

Adric,

I just placed an order for two tunics via PayPal.

Tom/Cuhelyn

ordered 1 tunic via pay pal

Thanks guys! I'll keep ya posted as we progress along. Trying to get some pics up. Currently.

ok heres a quick pic of one from the last batch in red. Jonathan is about 5;10 foot tall and wearing a size large.

oh and he cut the sleeves off! these are long sleeves normally but the lady that sets up next to us at GW has a machine with her and does cut and hem while ya wait for just a few bucks. he wanted short sleeves..

Are these good just for early period impressions?

Just sent paypal, order details in the notes. Thanks!




Marcus

About how long to expect the sale to run?

Few weeks.

Thank you. I have hopes to get at least one in that time frame.

Dude just lemme know - I can work with ya.

sizing (finnally) -
M - 36 inches around
L - 44
xl - 56

its a tube body so chest/gut will be the same - it flairs at the gores on the base and pits but there it is.
length is 36-39 inches shoulder to hem dpending on size.

Colours - the usual... Cheesy answer I know but it's all hand dyed so we can work with ya with in reason.

My brother... I am in for 5.... PayPal coming your way.

You gonna be at Border Raids? I can pick them up there...

Or we can work something else out if they won't be in by then.


And of course, THANK YOU for once again making us look spiff!

Erik!! Got it bro. If stuff gets here in time I'll bring em!
