During the 15th century, it became increasingly common for noblemen to provide "livery" to their followers and numerous laws, known as ordonnances, were passed to enforce the wearing of livery by common troops. The distinctively colored livery served as a uniform, concealing the diverse armor and clothing worn beneath. This not only made a bold and intimidating statement on the battlefield but also made it easier to identify friend from foe and reducing the risk of friendly fire.
This beautiful red wool fabric is heavier & more durable than medium-weight thinner wool fabric. Machine wash COLD if needed (preferably with similar colored clothes to avoid the risk of color transfer). Do not tumble dry. Can be ironed on low heat if necessary.
