Questions about the product Authentic Templar tabard, natural/red

What advantages does the authentic Templar tabard made of cotton offer compared to models made of linen or wool in terms of freedom of movement and care?

This authentic Templar tabard, made of cotton, offers maximum freedom of movement thanks to its loose fit and front and back slits, which is particularly advantageous for fencing, running, or riding. Compared to linen, cotton is also softer, easier to care for, and less prone to wrinkling. While wool often requires dry cleaning or elaborate care, this cotton tabard is durable and suitable for hand washing.
Is the tabard cut wide enough to be worn over a gambeson or chainmail, and where are the slits located for improved mobility?

The tabard is deliberately cut generously so that it can easily be worn over a gambeson, chainmail, or even parts of plate armor. For optimal freedom of movement while running, riding, or fighting, the garment is also equipped with practical side and front slits.
What specific care instructions should be followed to ensure the longevity of the cotton, and is machine or hand washing recommended for cleaning?

To ensure the longevity of the cotton, the tabard should ideally be cleaned by hand or on the hand-wash cycle of a washing machine at a maximum temperature of 30°C to 40°C. Chemical bleach and tumble drying should be avoided to protect the fibers. Ironing is possible at a high temperature (up to 200°C), but for best results, the garment should still be slightly damp.
What is the meaning of the red cross pattée on the Templar tabard, and where is it traditionally placed on the garment?

The red cross pattée on the Templar tabard symbolizes the suffering and shed blood of Christ, as well as life. Traditionally, it is placed on the left side of the garment, over the heart.
