there is a picture in the book 'Roman Warfare' by Adrian Goldsworthy, that has often made me think it could be a representation of a subarmalis.
If anyone has access to it, it is the first picture after the acknowledgements, the guy on the left of the pic. squares with holes in them, with small peturges. Seems if it as supposed to be chainmail, the artisits would have been very accurate in their representation, considering thedetail on the other figures.
Perhaps a perforated type of subarmalis to allow breathing?
