Viking cloak – wool cloak with hood
The Viking Cape is a timeless garment for authentic-looking costumes from the Viking Age and the early Middle Ages. Its simple, functional cut is based on historical models and offers the comfort of modern workmanship. This makes the cape suitable for use at events as well as for everyday use in camp life.
Made from a robust wool blend, it impresses with its comfortable wearing properties and reliable thermal performance. Wool was already one of the most important materials for warm outerwear in the Middle Ages – and its advantages are evident here too: the fabric provides effective protection against cold and wind without weighing you down. The cape ensures a pleasant, balanced body temperature, especially in changeable weather.
The generously cut hood offers additional protection for the head and neck. The classic wooden button in the chest area allows the cape to be closed quickly and easily. The one-size-fits-all design ensures that the cape can be worn over a wide variety of garments – from a simple tunic to several layers of clothing.
Historically, capes were part of the basic medieval clothing for almost all social classes. They were used as weather protection, travel clothing, and everyday outer garments. The cape takes up this functionality and combines it with a design that is deliberately kept simple in order to remain versatile.
Whether at a medieval market, reenactment, or camp event, this cape blends harmoniously into a wide variety of settings while offering practical benefits that go beyond its appearance.
