The Roman Senate - an important institution
The Roman tunic made of organic cotton gets its special look from the 2 sewn-on red stripes, the symbol of the Roman senators. In the ancient Roman era, the senators were not only highly respected citizens in the Roman Empire, they were also very influential and extremely powerful. Around 100 citizens belonged to the Roman Senate at that time and thus controlled the fate of the people and inhabitants of the great Roman Empire. They decided and passed laws and thus determined the lives of the people of Rome.

Cotton with the Romans?
Of course it was! According to tradition, cotton clothing was worn alongside wool, linen and silk in the imperial period (see publications from Augusta raurica, Switzerland) and other literary sources on trade routes and imported goods into the Roman Empire.
Even Pliny secundus reports on them: Ancient cotton
Tip for reenactors: Simply sew over the sleeves and the seams at the neck by hand and it will look homemade!
