Comfortable Two-Layer

The Medieval Padded Arming Cap is designed to provide a soft, cushioned layer between your head and medieval head armor. Made with a durable cotton canvas outer layer and soft cotton lining, the cap has a substantial feel without being too bulky.

Its two-layera is one of the most important parts of the design. The layers surround recycled textile padding made from a blend that includes wool, cotton, and polyester fibers. Together, they create a soft barrier that helps distribute pressure and reduce the uncomfortable feeling of the armor.

Designed to Wear Beneath Medieval Armor

Historically, padded Medieval arming coif formed an important part of a warrior’s equipment. Padding could be worn beneath helmets and other forms of head protection to improve comfort and provide an additional layer between the wearer and metal armor.

It extends down the head towards the neck. The extended shape helps prevent helmet edges from constantly rubbing directly against the skin.

Secure and Practical

Long ties are at the lower sides of the padded arming hood can be secured beneath the chin. This helps keep the cap properly positioned during use.

It also works as a padded helmet liner for users who want a separate removable layer rather than having padding permanently attached inside their helmet. Because it can be removed independently, it is easier to clean after use.

Care Instructions

  • Hand wash or machine wash cold on a gentle cycle.
  • Use mild detergent and avoid bleach.
  • Do not tumble dry, allow the cap to air dry naturally.

Note: The cap contains recycled textile padding, which may include wool, cotton and polyester fibres. Because recycled materials are used, the fibre composition and texture may vary slightly between batches.

The cap is intended to provide padding, cushioning and  comfort beneath compatible headgear.

As the cap adds thickness around the head, always consider the padded layer when selecting the size of a helmet or other headgear that will be worn over it.
