Anyone fight in Linen Garb's Tunics?

Post by Jakob Hilditonn »

Like it says... do any of you fight in one of Linen Garb's tunics?

I've read some of the reviews, I'm just looking for feedback on form, fit, and functionality.

I have one that I've fought it. The arms are a bit tight to go over armour, but is otherwise fine. If you were going to have it be the base layer, then it should be fine.

I fight in Adric's pants all the time.

I've used one of his tunics as an under layer for three years now- it's still in wearable shape, all the seams are still good, and there are only a few spots where the thread is wearing out.

I do not fight in their tunics as I do not own one. I do, however, fight in their Rus pants and they hold up quite well. So long as you stay off your knees on concrete they will hold up well.
