Measurements

• Height of the Tunicle: 40 inches
• Maniple: 19 inches (38 inches from end to end)

LINING: The Tunicle is available as lined and unlined.

• LINED: The interior of the Tunicle is lined with light blue Satin Fabric.
• UNLINED: There is no lining for the Tunicle and this makes it lighter compared to the lined ones. This is best recommended in warm - hot climatic areas.

The Tunicle is the outer liturgical vestment of the sub deacon. It is worn at Mass and at solemn processions and benedictions. The colour of the tunicle should be the same as the chasuble the priest wears as per the liturgical colour of the day. As per the liturgical order, the Tunicle should be less ornate than the dalmatic and comes with only one horizontal band on the top near the neck. (source: www.newadvent.org)
