Hose, Boots, ShirtThe costume starts with dark tan knit hose. Over this is a pair of nearly knee-high brown leather boots, turned down to reveal a collar of the same soft auburn leather as Edmund's camp tunic. From the Parley image, his boots look to lace up to the outside of the calves. A sky-blue, longsleeved shirt is worn, with a rounded neck and long sleeves, unfitted until they button snugly up the forearm in six tan buttons. It appears, however, that four of the buttons are false, running along an outer seam, and only the two closest to the wrist are functional. The body of the cotehardie is rather loose, and under the belt it folds at the sides under the jerkin slit, giving the appearance of pleats. The fabric looks like a coarse plain weave: the warp is a brighter, lighter blue, making the weave stand out more. It looks to be wool or a wool blend - perhaps a linsey-woolsey? Burgundy JerkinThe burgundy leather jerkin is worn over the cotehardie: it's only slightly longer, split at the sides from the waist down. It's a straight tunic, no shaping. The neck is rounded with a short V slit, overcast in tan. Here we can see the facing at the neck. The sleeve caps are also overcast. The back of the jerkin is laced up, from neck to waist. The criss-cross lacing draws the seam together exactly. On each side at the split, the front of the tunic has three buttons spaced evenly about an inch from the hem. We can see the buttons well in this image, and the corresponding button holes quite well in this image. Though meant to button up the split, we see it unbuttoned all throughout the film. The jerkin folds up a bit under his red belt with gold buckle, attached to his matching sword sheath, his gifts from Father Christmas, also worn with his Armor.
