As an outlaw with your face on the wanted posters you cannot afford to be recognized; the price you pay if you get caught is simply too high. No matter if your lawless deeds are perceived to be of rightful reasons or of a more dubious motive, a hood will help you, when you must stay faceless. It is the perfect finishing touch when crafting your LARP-kit for your heroic woodsman or your cunning thief!
Epic Armoury’s Hood Adventurer is a hood with a short mantle and long hood tail. The mantle covers the shoulders, keeping the upper chest covered, while the roomy hood can be pulled down to cover part of the face. Made of a rougher fabric than our Basic Hood, this hood provides protection from the elements without being too warm in potential heat.
Wear this hood by simply slipping it over your head--it’s easy and comfortable. Hoods are great garments for rounding off your look, and the Hood Adventurer is a traditional layer that fits a wide variety of character types.
Affordable and interchangeable with all other Epic Armoury gear this garment allows you to personalize your own costume.
HISTORY

Your Knight’s Code is one of valor, truth, and courage. You are tasked with defending the innocent and the weak, and today your oath is being tested. A dark knight has destroyed both your shield and sword during a duel, and he advances upon you.
This honorless fiend believes he has won, but you will not allow yourself to perish without taking this evil with you in the process. You grab for your Stiletto still at your waist, and prepare to make a final desperate attempt to lodge the blade between the dark knight’s armour.
Let your god guide your hand...for you have only one chance.
DETAILS
The bestselling Epic Armoury Stiletto is a solid dagger with a comfortable split-leather wrapped handle. The crossguard has a simple and elegant design, protecting the 13 cm grip when in use. When fighting enemies in heavy plate armour, daggers like this would have been worn by a knight and forced between the joints during combat.
Made from durable closed cell foam around a fibreglass core and finished with a strong latex coating, you can feel confident that your LARP weapon will provide the safety and appeal you want when crafting your authentic kit. Whether your business is running the realm, defending your homestead or backstabbing the higher-social classes, this multi-purpose tool is for you.
HISTORY
- Worn at the waist and used as both a utility tool and a side-arm in battle
- Historically designed for stabbing or cutting, while proving ineffective at slashing
- Also known as the “lady’s knife,” because it could be easily hidden under skirts

The snows have come, but despite the cold your village still depends on you to defend it from hungry raiders. The northern winters can be harsh, making men and women particularly desperate.
Thankfully, your Medieval Hood is secure and keeps you warm. You keep the hood over your head as you patrol the walls, pulling it close to keep away the biting wind. At least it is easy to spot incoming trouble against the pure white of snow. You’ll see anyone coming.
DETAILS

Pants. They go on your legs.
You tighten your belt another notch over your Basic Pants, frowning at the watered-down soup over the fire. It’s been a long winter, and you and your family aren’t sure you’re going to have enough food. As you consider ways you might be able to afford some meat--maybe you can do some work for a merchant in town?--there’s an anxious knock on the door.
“Raiders!” shouts the messenger on your doorstep. “Raiders are coming! Every able person is being called to fight!”
Suddenly an empty belly is the least of your worries.
DETAILS
Epic Armoury’s Basic Pants are classic medieval-cut pants with a few convenient modern alterations, such as the sizeable pockets. Made from durable medium cotton, these pants feature adjustable cotton drawstrings along the hems to achieve the gathered effect so popular in medieval clothing.
The pants are fitted with a cotton drawstring at the waist to keep the pants in place while leaving sufficient room for a proper belt. The look is universal and can fit a barbarian invading Rome, a medieval mercenary or a renaissance harquebusier. The Basic Pants are fully compatible with other Epic Armoury clothes and armours, allowing you the freedom to personalize your character's gear.
HISTORY
- Commonly referred to as trousers, pants have been worn in the Western world since ancient times
- An ancient garment of German-Celtic origin that became popular in the Roman Empire and in the successor kingdoms
