Factoid #15:
The léine (lee-noo), also called a saffron shirt, was a linen, belted tunic worn by Gaelic men in both Ireland and Scotland–prior to belted plaids and kilts. This knee-length garment was often dyed yellow and had big sleeves and a flared skirt with many folds. Women wore a similar, ankle-length tunic.
