red, white, who cares? What do the women like? - richsc - 12-18-2002
I was cruising legion websites, and I discoverd that Luca's Legio V ( www.romanhideout.com/Legiov/default.asp )has the definitive answer to why we all wear white tunics.<br>

<br>
Or maybe being Italian has something to do with it..<br>

red and white - Italian style - Daniel S Peterson - 12-18-2002
Don't want to burst anyone's bubble, but I believe the largest, best drilled and best equipped Roman group in Italy, wears RED tunics, just like the best groups in Britain and Germany.<br>

aha! the segmentata quick release lever - richsc - 12-18-2002
ahem..show me the photos of the red dressed folks with the women!<br>
<br>
And, following up on those curious hooks on the sides of that one segmentata that baffled Mike Bishop, they are not for suspenderii, but are actually quick release mechanism loops. <p>Richard Campbell, Legio XX<br>

Yeah but Dan, where are all the hot ladies? The ancient legions measured success by their battle honours, perhaps the modern one could by the number of ladies we attract? <p><br>

Saluete omnes,<br>
<br>
but...didn't you know it?<br>
Women... adore red tunics!<br>
This is (one of) the reasons we wear it. M<br>
OK, seriously speaking, reasons are others, but it helps!<br>

Glad I looked at this at work, my wife would have gone mad if I had looked at that at home<br>

I can't post any images of the ladies that us gladiators attract but I think we need to go to Italy soon EM<br>

And I was about to say those gladiatrix in their gear looked pretty nice too, but one has to be careful about whom one says such things... <p>Richard Campbell, Legio XX<br>
