Ye ye, call them what you like, but skirts they are. I allways see (reenactments, pictures, movies ect.) the roman soldiers wearing these skirts, sandals and short sleeved shirts/armors.
Fashion and manhood aside, how could they dress like that, when half the year it's realy cold? Even in the souther regens of the empire, like judea and egypt, it gets aroung freezing in winter and at nights. Not to mention the bitter cold and snow of the european regens. These areas require heavy shoes/boots and warm thick coats. How come we ("I"?) don't see these?
