Facings (sometimes called “Trims”) should be avoided for generic kit.
{{AO Special Mention|Title= No rolled up sleeves|Caption= Clothing from our period is usually shown with tight sleeves. As such they would have found it impossible to roll their sleeves up their arms. If you do this then your sleeves are too loose and you would do well to tighten them.}}
==Under Shirt==
The under shirt may only be worn on its own only if physical work is being performed.
{{AO Special Mention|Title= More plain linen shirts and shifts.|Caption= A natural or bleached linen is encouraged for shirts and shifts. As undergarments they would have been washed more frequently and also been worn less visibly. As such, it is considered unlikely that people would have bothered dyeing them as any dye would have washed out over time. }}
==Waist ties and Belts==
Belt buckles must be of D shape to an authentic pattern and can be made from iron, copper-alloy or bone. Belts may have leather or metal hoops or slides on them made to authentic design to retain the end around the waist. The end of the belt should not be overlong, or tied up in a knot that hangs down.
{{#lst:Officers:AO Special Mention|No long belts}}
==Trousers or hose and braies==
