Thanks to everyone that has replied so far.

I'm in Northern Virginia so I am concerned about the heat and humidity.

I was already hot before at Pennsic so now I am signing up to make myself even hotter. I must be nuts.

Two questions: How is wearing an arming jacket or gambeson at Pennsic or any other summer event for that matter. Seems like it would be really hot? What is the difference between an arming jacket and a gambeson? I only difference I really see is maybe they are a little more fitted and shorter. Thank...

To Gambeson or not to Gambeson

At this point I am just trying to get out on the field. I'm more of a Viking but not all my armor is at this point. I won't really be in there with the hard hitting either. I will be crewing an Arbelest. A gambeson seems a little over kill to me but I don't know what else people are wearing. Thanks.

To Gambeson or not to Gambeson

Are you wearing a gambeson under your armour? If you aren't wearing a gambeson under your armour, what are you wearing?

New fighter, looking for options. Thanks
