Wool Flannel for Tunics?

[Anonymous]

Just wondering if this type of wool was acceptable as far as a weave goes for roman tunics. What of melton as well? <p>Magnus/Matt<br>

If you can find Yadin's Bar Kochba book look at the close ups of the white wool tunics. The weave is extremely fine and looks much like the unbleached white wool flannel of original american civil War union army shirts.<br>
