Late Medieval Wool Chaperon 15th Century Headwear

Step into the 15th century with Mythrojan’s Late Medieval Wool Chaperon “The Knight”, a headpiece that brings historical authenticity and striking style to your character. Based directly on contemporary medieval artwork, this chaperon was a common sight among the nobility, knights, and wealthy merchants of late medieval Europe.

Its distinctive design ,  a large bourrelet (roll), a long liripipe (tail), and finely cut dagged edges resembling oak leaves – makes it one of the most iconic forms of late medieval headwear. Originally just a simple chaperon worn differently, this fashion evolved into a unique garment that quickly became a status symbol across the courts and cities of Europe.

Made from heavy premium wool, this chaperon is not only historically accurate but also warm and durable, ensuring it will last through countless battles, fairs, and events. Whether you are preparing for a reenactment, SCA event, LARP adventure, or a historical film production, this piece will add the perfect finishing touch to your medieval character.
