Pausanias on Achaean armament, ca. 200 BCE
#37
"when he handles his shield, breastplate, and helmet, see to it that they are cleaner and smarter than his chlamys and chiton"
That is the Loeb translation, the context is that Philopoemen urged his men to take for their arms the care they usually take for their clothes.
