@Claire: www.ferrangarreta.com is the chap's site.
He doesn't speak English, however, so you might need to use Google Translate - or find someone who speaks Spanish. I can put you in touch with a Spanish reenactor who kindly acted as a go-between, but you might need to make him a tunic or something! (I sent him a signed copy of Hannibal in Spanish as a thank you.)
@Mithras/Paul: thanks very much! Tony will be in Claire's late Roman tunic & trousers, Sarah JUniper's boots, and wearing a late Roman helmet from Peronis. His shield will be late Roman, made by Amy Wallace of Comitatus. Not sure where his sword is from.
Russ will be wearing Tony's auxiliary gear, which I believe is all of good provenance. However, as he has a 'Tough Mudder' event two days after we finish, he will be wearing modern hiking boots. We'll hide his feet in all photos!
