Noob question - Wearing lorica segmentata
#1
Hey guys just a silly one. Wondering what the best method is to put on your lorica segmentata without assistance? The best way ive found so far is to have the back laced up, have it wide open at the front and stand it on a table and back up to it. Arms in and lift it onto my shoulders - but plenty of pinching and scraping occurs, not to mention my shoulders feel ready to dislocate!

Great having someone nearby to have it split and lace the back for me, but im sure legionaries could dress themselves! :cheer: there must be an easier way....
