Now Viewing: tabardTag type: General A tabard is a short coat common for men during the Middle Ages. Generally used while outdoors, the coat was either sleeveless or had short sleeves or shoulder pieces. In its more developed form it was open at the sides; and it could be worn with or without a belt. Though most were ordinary garments, often workclothes, tabards might be emblazoned on the front and back with a coat of arms, and in this (livery) form they survive now as the distinctive garment of officers of arms. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tabard Other Wiki Information Last updated: 01/25/14 10:50 AM by Radjah This entry is not locked and you can edit it as you see fit. |
