The panels fall from a high shoulder line, which is what gives the movement when you turn or reach rather than the fabric pulling flat across the back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003eBuying the two as a set means the reds match. Cotton blend takes dye in small batches, so a waistcoat and hood ordered months apart can sit slightly off each other in daylight. These two are cut to go together, and the hood picks up the same distressed patterning as the panels, so worn up it reads as part of the waistcoat rather than an add-on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch2 class=\"pd-h\"\u003eWhy it costs what it does\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eYou are paying for two coordinated pieces built to Chow's pattern, not a printed panel on a thin shell. The waistcoat carries real panelled construction, a shaped shoulder and armholes wide enough to work over a gambeson, and the hood has enough length in the wraparound to actually cover the face and still sit flat at the back. The cheap version of this look is a tabard tacked to a separate snood that never quite matches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eIt is worth being straight about what it does not do. The hood resists light rain and cuts wind, but neither piece is waterproof. The two also wash differently: the waistcoat is dry clean only, so it does not go in the machine with the rest of your kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch2 class=\"pd-h\"\u003eWho this set is for\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cul class=\"pd-who\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMages, sorcerers and wizards who want a full red layer that reads caster from across a field.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eWarriors layering over or under armour, where the wide armholes matter.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNecromancer and darker characters who wear the hood up and wrapped over the face.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAnyone building a red kit who wants the waistcoat and hood to match rather than gambling on two separate orders.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eWarm-hall and summer events, where the lighter cut is the point.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv class=\"pd-faq\"\u003e\n    \u003ch2 class=\"pd-h\"\u003eCommon questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n    \u003cdetails\u003e\n      \u003csummary\u003eWhat comes in the set?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n      \u003cdiv class=\"a\"\u003eThe set is two pieces: the red panelled waistcoat and the red medieval scarf hood.
