			==Re-Enactment==
			The [[re-enactment]] equivalent of loaner gear is sometimes known as club kit. The amount will vary a great deal from a few items of hard to acquire gear to complete outfits.

			The club kit of re-enactment groups is generally gear that has neared the end of it's useful life, the previous owner has upgraded or involves an interpretation of history that has since been found to be inaccurate. If the inaccuracy is not too great it will loaned to new members, but if it is too great a mistake, the item will instead be retired.

			In some groups the entire club will be kitted out from a central store.
