Its made of linen
Took me about one and a half day to get it done
i used this pattern to make it, alltough its late roman i assume a pattern like this would have been around for some time, and the long sleeves are plausible, here in austria winters can be unpleasant, and summers sometimes too, and auxiliarys stationed on the noric/germanic limes would have had the need for a litte bit warmer clothing
next thing on the to do list is the subarmalis
i hope to be soon able to post some actual photos of my impression
