Functional, convenient, and — above all — faithful to the original! Our selection of medieval hoods is all that you need to give a little extra touch to your Viking outfit. The items available in this section are based on actual pieces found on the territories of today’s Scandinavia (Hedeby, Skjoldeham, and more). We use traditional manufacturing methods — every visible stitch that you’ll find on our pieces is hand-sewn with linen thread. As a result, you get a historically accurate item of clothing that’s not only period-specific, but also durable. Start exploring our collection right away!
A classic Viking hood from around the 10th century is a fairly simple piece. The item was designed to protect you from the wind and cold — it’s sewn quite high under the throat for extra comfort. Soft natural wool feels great and keeps you warm, at the same time providing great breathability. Most of our medieval models from this section are diamond-shaped, stitched together from two rectangular pieces of cloth. The inside stitching is machine for the sake of shape and durability.
Our collection of Viking hoods holds a whole range of colours. We have your classic browns and beiges — shades most commonly associated with medieval clothing — as well as a bit more vibrant tones of green, honey yellow, blue, or even orange. Add a little decorative lining to the mix and you get a piece that’s not only period-accurate, but also aesthetically pleasing. Check our product description pages to learn more about the origin and style of specific items.
