13th Century
Hello, I'm new here, in fact this is my first post. I'm a historical reenacter, and I normally portray an English knight of the thirteenth century. I know this won't make me especially popular on here, but here's the redeeming point. One of the other fellows in my troop and myself were booked to perform at a Scottish festival next month. Now we only took this gig for the exposure, but it does mean that I need to build a kit for it in a hurry. I was wondering if anyone could help me find information on the type of kilts used in the 1290's. The weapons I intended to use for the fighting demo are English (captured as the story goes), and French (which were military allies in the period). But the question is what to wear with them. Most of the info I have been able to find dates from much later.
If this goes well, I might be delving further into this. I am decended from the Clan Ferguson and am finding the research interesting.
Thanks.
