Very unlikely they wore any armour or 'military' gear at all, I think. They would have dressed much like other Jewish men of the era, and carried clubs/staves and swords when necessary.

There's an illustration by Graham Sumner in Roman Military Clothing 1 of an auxiliary soldier in 'civilian disguise' that probably captures the look very well.

Could you post it?
