The Roman Tunic is a little like the medieval variant but is far more decadent and smug. I think that was the Roman Empire in a nutshell. Nothing beats it for casually engaging in the high politics of the Senate or crushing slave rebellions in comfort.
You are a citizen of the Roman Empire, one of the elite in the world’s most advanced society. Your standard of living far exceeds what the savages to the north can expect. With a democracy and a military to be reckoned with, the Romans are the most powerful force in the world.
You pull your Roman Tunic back over your head after leaving the bathhouse and its hot, healing waters. It’s good to be civilized.
DETAILS
Epic Armoury’s Roman Tunic is a light Roman-style shirt often worn as an undergarment with a large boat-shaped neckline. Reaching from the shoulders to the knees and made from comfortable, dyed cotton, this tunic is an extremely versatile item that can be a costume all by itself--or work as a base layer in a more complicated design. Embellished along the elbow-length sleeves with embroidered trim and detailed with a unique toothed hem, this tunic is an essential and long-lasting piece that will fit any character’s need.
