The black and white color scheme symbolizes purity (white) and the cross of Christ (black cross). Since these colors are the defining characteristic of the Teutonic Order, this specific tabard is not available in other colors; however, historically accurate versions of other orders, such as the Templars (red and white) or the Knights Hospitaller (white and red), are available.
What historical functions did the tabard fulfill on the battlefield, and how is the fit for riders optimized by the slit design?

On the battlefield, the tabard primarily served to identify friend from foe and to protect the armor from dirt and direct sunlight, thus preventing the metal from overheating. The fit for riders is optimized by side and central slits, which ensure the necessary freedom of movement in the saddle and allow for comfortable riding.
