Clothing and Equipment
Policy for the "kingdom of banns 1475"
General
Of course it is not possible to adopt for the entire "kingdom levy" a universal and compulsory clothing and equipment regulation, if only for the reason that the participating groups come from all over Europe and can have therefore no uniform apparel and should ; regional peculiarities can not be so considered. This Directive therefore only a deliberately neutral everyday clothing and equipment is described, as it had spread throughout Europe and in the can can be seen on events across Europe. Model was the regulation of the Company of Saynte George, right panels can be seen on the homepage of CoStG find, and a Kitguide for men, but with a focus on Burgundian (which does not fit on 80% of the territory of present-day Germany).
