What is Overview of Medieval Irish Clothing about?

Medieval Irish clothing consisted mainly of the leine and brat. The leine was a long tunic or smock that fell to the ankles, and sometimes longer for women. Social status determined length and material, with higher classes wearing longer, finer materials like silk and satin. The brat was a cloak worn over the leine, often brightly colored and fastened at the neck. Other garments included the inar, a close-fitting jacket; brocs, tight-fitting trousers; a crios belt; and basic brog shoes made of untanned hide
