Just stumbled on this site and as it wasnt one I had seen before, thought I should share: https://www.medievalcollectables.com/

I got in trouble on this site (spending way too much) and had to ground myself from it for some time.

The only thing I didn't like was the female garb: a lot of it is mass-produced, fiber-content questionable, and can be found on other sites.

I ordered from them once. I had very bad customer service.
Masquerading as a normal person day after day is exhausting.

Have to agree with the fiber content of the clothing -- not what I expected.  Also felt the clothing more "costume" than garb -- costume being more something that's light, looks good from a distance, and not expected to last all that long (like a Halloween costume) .... where garb would be more like actual clothing of the proper period.

Watch the sizing, too.  I found the sizes ran small (what they said was a 36" waist was 34" at best).

Finally, have seen many of the same pieces sold elsewhere for less.

I looked it through, and while yes, most of the wares were 'typical', some things were good finds (such as flat, riveted mail- that's hard to find!)

Just be careful with this site. Almost everything they carry is something they have acquired and are selling 3rd party. Their prices tend to be rather high and their customer service leaves something to be desired. If you search enough you'll find some complaints floating around on this and that board. However, it is a great resource to find items you are looking for the go looking for them elsewhere for comparison. JMHO.
