The Anglo-Norman word surcote simply means "over the cote or gown" and it refers to any outer garment worn over the dress or tunic. Surcotes could therefore be of wool, linen or silk and could worn by men or ladies in their everyday dress; the type worn over armour by knights from the second half of the 12th century onwards would be of linen either dyed in one or more plain colours or embroidered with the coat of arms.
A specific type of sleeveless surcote made with a lining of expensive fur (ermine, vair or gris) was called a pellice or pelison. This was not worn with armour but by both men and women as ordinary everyday dress.
