Hi Guys.

Sorry to be a bit of a party pooper but it seems to me that a lot of Late Roman re-enactors consistently fail to notice that the sleeves on the late military tunics are very tight fitting and narrow around the wrist. Look at the sources guys, the Piazza Armerina mosaics or the famous image of Stilicho for example.

Do not just copy any surviving tunic look at the ones with the sleeves narrowing towards the wrist not with wide sleeve openings. From those I have seen the ones by Alain/Arbogast looks about the best and as I have said many times before Aitor's.
