The Liripipe Medieval Hood is inspired by 14th and 15th-century European headwear. Also known as a medieval gugel, this practical and stylish hood was worn by both commoners and nobles for protection and fashion.
Made from a 70% wool and 30% blended fabric, this hood is warm and comfortable. The wool content gives natural insulation against wind and cold, while the blend makes it durable and helps in reducing excessive shrinkage. The fabric is heavy and strong making it ideal for events and outdoor wear.
This renaissance hood has a shoulder-covering cowl and a long trailing tail known as a liripipe. In medieval times, the liripipe was both functional and fashionable. It could be wrapped around the neck or head in cold weather, or left hanging for a distinctive look. By the late Middle Ages, longer liripipes became a sign of status and style.
Antique brass medieval buttons run down the front, giving the hood a refined historical look with easy fastening.
Whether worn at LARP events, Renaissance fairs, gatherings, or theatrical performances, this medieval hooded cowl is both authentic as well as practical.
