Linen Viking Tunic: Unlike cotton, which did not appear in Europe until centuries later, linen was the primary textile of the Viking and medieval world. Woven from flax fibers, linen had durability, breathability, and moisture-wicking properties, making it the preferred choice for both daily wear and as a base layer under woolen garments.
Archaeological finds across Europe show linen as the foundation of Viking-age clothing, for its strength and comfort in all seasons.
For serious enthusiasts, linen is the only authentic fiber for early medieval clothing. This Viborg Viking Tunic shirt not only has the cut and style of the original 11th-century find, but also uses the very material Vikings themselves would have worn, ensuring the highest level of historical accuracy and authenticity.
