This authentic cotton canvas tabard is inspired by garments worn by Viking, Norman, and early medieval warriors through the late 14th century. Traditionally worn over a tunic or armour, the tabard served as both a protective outer layer and a way to display colors, crests, or allegiance on the battlefield.

Crafted from 100% cotton, this tabard provides historical authenticity, breathability as well as comfort. The natural cotton weave feels soft against the skin while remaining durable enough for long hours of wear during LARP battles, festivals, or reenactments. Its medium weight fabric ensures year-round usability, cool in summer and ideal for layering over warmer garments in colder months.

Designed with splits at the front, back, and sides, the tabard provides maximum mobility and ventilation, this was historically favored by medieval soldiers and knights for comfort during combat or movement on horseback. These cuts also allow the fabric to drape naturally, creating a flowing, heroic look that moves gracefully with every step.

The loose, sleeveless fit allows it to be worn easily over tunics, chainmail, or gambesons, making it a versatile and practical layer for any medieval ensemble. Its mid-thigh length and clean, finished edges lend it both a refined and rugged look suited for warriors, squires, and nobles.

Whether used for LARP, historical reenactment, theater, or festival wear, this cotton tabard stands as a beautiful piece of medieval attire for honor, identity, and craftsmanship across centuries of history.
