Fulfilling Visions. Legio Gloria Summer Releases 2020
Posted on July 23, 2020
I wanted to share some thoughts regarding the latest releases (available here: Legio Gloria New Releases) since doing so is my custom and since I am happy and proud to present them.
The title of the article is Fulfilling Visions and I named it thus since many of the garments are now visions that have been fulfilled. Setting up a goal and reaching it, small or large, is a great sensation.
The Atlantis Linen Shirt is similar to the Aesthetic Men’s Linen Shirt. After some contemplation some adjustments to the cut were made. The new shirt is more spacious across the chest and less spacious around the waist, making it even more suitable for an athletic physique. The colour is a striped sea blue, and the name of Atlantis is to invoke the sense of a lost civilisation being brought back to life.
Linen is a great material for clothing and has a long history in Europe. Its only downside is that it quickly gets wrinkly. However, since this is common knowledge you can get away with it; no one expects you to have a linen shirt that is not wrinkly after a day of wearing it. That being said you can of course iron it before putting it on.
The linen shirt is made in Lithuania.
The Epona’s Gym Shorts have been in the works for quite some time and this type of shorts have been a personal wish for many years. I remember reading a historical fiction novel set in ancient Greece and the Greeks were said to wear clothing that showed the musculature of the legs, I thought this made sense. Wearing shorts that display your legs will also keep you accountable in regard to doing your squats in the gym.
Having strong legs is a sure sign of athletic prowess and also translates well into martial endeavours.
Epona is the Gallo-Roman goddess of horses and fertility. I associate the colour green with (among other nations) Gaul, and I associate horses with leg hypertrophy, hence the name.
You can wear these both inside the Temple of Iron and outside when the weather allows. The shorts are made of 100% cotton and is made in Poland (as is the rest of the garments listed below).
The Aesthetic Swimming Shorts are the most comfortable swimming shorts I have ever worn.
Speaking of swimming shorts, there is a cultural difference between European and American guys (geographically speaking) where the former prefer shorter swimming shorts whereas the latter prefer longer board-shorts. I am, of course, speaking in broad terms and it is my wish that all aesthetic and enlightened American guys try these out as well. Just be mindful that shipping continues to be delayed to the United States.
The Saturnus’ Imperial Tracksuit Bottoms are restocked. They deserve a special mention since they have served me well over the last year.
Saturnus (in Greek: Cronus) is a Roman deity associated with generation, dissolution, plenty, renewal and liberation, all aspects that can be wished for today. In Greek mythology he reigned during the Golden Age and we must post physique to end the Kali Yuga and bring back the Golden Age! I just mixed mythologies (Kali Yuga being a Hindu concept) but the mix works in this context because I believe we all can agree that our Modern World resembles the Kali Yuga to a large extent.
Imladris Athletic Tanktop
This is a tanktop that has been under progress for quite some time. I always like to try out new concepts and models before releasing them. I have trained in my prototype for about two months now and it has served me well.
The garment is very light and breathable and with a cut around the arms and shoulders that makes is optimally comfortable (it also minimises the sweat from the armpit to get to the garment). Perfect for training in warm climates.
Navy Gym Stringer and White Gym Stringer
Lastly, we have two new stringers. This time in organic cotton with a clean and stylish Legio Gloria – Evropa Invicta design.
They work well both in the gym and outside on a sunny day!
Epic and Motivating Quote from Gates of Fire by Steven Pressfield
Posted on July 1, 2020
“/…/ Polynikes’ supreme physical beauty. In every aspect of his person, face as well as physique, the Knight was formed as flawlessly as a god. Naked in the Gymnasion, even alongside scores of youths and warriors blessed in comeliness and elevated by their training to the peak of condition, Polynikes stood out, without equal, surpassing all others in symmetry of form and faultlessness of physical structure. Clothed in white robes for the Assembly, he shone like Adonis. And armed for war, with the bronze of his shield burnished, his scarlet cloak across his shoulders and the horsehair-crested helmet of a Knight pushed back upon his brow, he shone forth, peerless as Achilles.”

My Censored Instagram Post
Posted on June 4, 2020
Yesterday I posted the following to Instagram (accompanying the picture above):
“Let me tell you something.
I have only had positive experiences with Black people (both in the US and Europe). Moreover, I do not blame Blacks for taking their own side.
However, what repulses me to no end are all the self-hating Whites. Spineless cowards who refuse to stand up for their own side. There is nothing that disgusts me more than a lack of loyalty. And that is what I see in so many Whites.
Complete silence when Whites are being targeted, no matter how gruesome the acts of violence and abuse.
My issue is not with other groups, but when there is a competition for land or resources (or other matters) I will put my own bioculture first, just as I expect the other groups to do.
Remember that you do not need to bear any ill will towards other groups, but you must always be loyal to your own group.”
And today it was taken down. Nothing spectacular or out of the ordinary, but I want to mention it to highlight the double-standards of social media corporations. The reason for the post being taken down was supposedly that it contained “hateful content”. You can judge for yourself if the post was hateful or not.
That being said it is not a big deal but it is worth pointing out these incidents whenever they happen.

European Symbols – Legio Gloria Releases May 2020
Posted on May 8, 2020
It is with great pleasure that I announce the new Legio Gloria releases. These have been a long time in the making and I am very happy with the final result.
Organic Cotton
I have always aimed to make Legio Gloria clothing the best it can possibly be. The cut and fit, the material, the message, the aesthetics, the feel. Everything has to be on point.
Upgrading some of the new garments to have organic cotton was a natural step in this direction. They are very comfortable and nice to the touch.
Aux Armes
This is a true Legio Gloria classic in a new design. The motive and message of the garment is meant to serve as a reminder to yourself to get a sense of urgency.
Aux Armes translates from French as ‘to arms’.
The jousting knights serves as a reminder to act chivalrously (an act of rebellion in the degeneracy modern world). It is also a homage to Medieval Europe.
Your Ancestors Are Watching
This is a great reminder when looking to set the pace high (no matter your endeavour). If you know your Ancestors (or someone else you seek to make proud) are watching you; you will strive higher. This mental technique is something that will serve you well both inside and outside of the Temple of Iron – it applies no matter what you do.
The new edition is made with organic cotton.
Ride the White Tiger
Do not succumb to the decadence of the world around you, but steer the tiger onward to glory. The Modern World offers plenty of detrimental temptations, should you fall off the tiger you will get trampled underfoot and eaten. However, if you manage to stay on its back it can take you to ever new heights. Riding the Tiger in a life affirming manner means enjoying the ride and making the most of where the tiger can take you.
The new edition is made with organic cotton.
Ymir’s Strength Garment
Ymir – the primordial giant of Nordic mythology demands offerings in the form of strongman and powerlifting training. This is a loose fitting training garment but is comfortable to wear in all relaxed situations.
Arguably the world’s most comfortable gym shirt is now available in size small. Size small in this garment is meant to be an actual medium/large. I wear mine in large (after having it washed in a high temperature).
So if you have awaited this garment in a regular size, this is a good day!
Imperivm Evropa
The use of V instead of U is a nod to the Roman way of spelling. The statue depicted is based upon the works of the German sculptor Arno Breker and the words surrounding the statue; veritas (truth), honor (honour), ivstitia (justice) signifies values that should be upheld. The statue is a homage to Classical Europe, and this garment is designed to promote European (including America and Australia and the other former colonies) unity and pride in this legacy. Classical aesthetics such as this can be found all over Europe and is thus a good symbol to promote a much needed cultural re-awakening. When wearing this garment you should strive to become the statue; the physical representation of eternal metaphysical ideals.
Note: This is an updated version of a previous garment. The difference between the versions is that the new one has the word ‘honor’ instead of ‘honorem’, thus being more grammatically correct.
All new designs are available at legiogloria.com
If you have read this far I wish you a great weekend ahead.
