Our brightly-colored Roman tunic copies the standard issue to the Roman legions from the days of the Republic to the end of the Empire (around 400 CE). Worn under armor or by itself, the simple lines of this tunic are classic and lend themselves to many combinations of clothing from later periods of history. This oversized shirt extends to mid-thigh, giving it a distinctive look. Red only. The Romans took the color from the Spartan's red cloaks as did the Renaissance-era English Army; the Spartans wore red so that their enemies would never see them bleed.
