SUBARMALIS THICKNESS

[Tarbicus]

I was always under the impression that the additional shoulder padding was done by adding on a piece of sheepskin with the wool still on it?

Not sure where I read that, though.

No subarmalis has ever been found, except there may have been a leather part of a shoulder padding found, but that's an interpretation. Sounds like a re-enactment group's way of doing things.
