The following illustrations show some of the members in various types of kit, both as an illustration of what we believe was the range of period equipment, and the range, standard and style we expect from members of the regiment
This soldier wears an issue coat, in red wool lined with off-white wool, over a blue-grey wool jerkin. The coat cuffs are folded back, showing the lining material; the cuffs of his unbleached linen shirt are just visible beneath.
His headgear is a woollen montero, made of red wool with a lining of blue wool, which shows due to the way the hat is folded in an up position. The rolled brim could be pulled down to cover most of the head. His breeches are of grey wool, with cloth pockets, tied at the knee with linen ribbon. His hose are sewn from lightweight off white wool cloth. On his feet he has brown leather close sided shoes.
A natural leather belt with tinned iron fittings supports a powder bag and a hanger for the simple but functional sword. A coil of matchcord is hung from the powder bag. In addition this soldier has a linen canvas snapsack and a globular leather water bottle.
His musket is a 36” barrel matchlock, shorter than the standard matchlock and made for dragoone use.
