I’ve just picked up on this discussion, and am probably coming late to the feast.
I suspect I’ll be seeing a lot of the new tunics sold by Christian over the next few years. It will be like the probable soldiers wearing matching tunics on the Piazza Armarina mosaics. But I have only seen pictures of the tunics. I like the decoration and it seems to be in wool. What is the tunic material? It looks like it may be linen.
If people find the tunics too long I would be tempted to use the decoration on a new wool tunic with tighter sleeves.
