Winter clothing.

Where they limited to what could fit under their armor.

Well, cloaks would go OVER the armor! And possibly some types of tunics, too. Plus, Caesar's men would have been in mail, mostly, so it wouldn't be a big problem if the clothing under it was bulkier than usual.

Did they have a standard of clothing they could wear, some kind of uniformity or did they just grab what they wanted. I’m just wondering about the chaos of battle if everyone looked the same.

We really don't know much about regulations or standards. We can't even prove uniform colors or shield emblems, particularly in Caesar's time and before. It seems that each man was supplying his own clothing, or at least any supplementary clothing. Traditions and fashions probably carried more weight than any modern idea of "regulations". Don't worry about battles, though--the combination of shield style (and probably decoration) and armament would make it easy to tell Romans from Gauls. The Gauls allied to the Romans might confuse things, perhaps, but barbarians had been fighting each other since time began so presumably they had that worked out.

Shields and weapons to tell the differance between sides. Thanks, did'nt think about that.
