Herringbone Leg Wraps

A brave Viking will fight, even though his blade is dull!

The Epic Armoury Wool Leg Wraps are an efficient way to protect your limbs from harm during Larp battle. Our woollen winingas are made from long strips of fabric weaved in a herringbone pattern designed to complement any period costume. These leg bindings are perfect for warriors seeking padding and protection beneath their leg armor or running through the bush. Our leg wraps are wound from the ankle to the knee and can be tied or fastened using a pin. Winingas are essentially a form of leg gaiter that can be used to protect your lower lant legs or bare limbs from scratches and bruises during combat. They also provide support, warmth and comfort to your calves and are a necessary part of any medieval wardrobe. This medieval costume accessory helps ensure a snug and motionless grip needed for attaching your leg armor while giving a striking and visible impression to your outfit.

The sword sits in the baldric hanging down from your shoulder, faithful to its master despite the challenges. It has been a long and dusty road--and your uniform down to your Medieval Pants is covered in dirt and grime--but that sword has remained at your side through it all.

As your infantry unit comes to a halt, there is the tension one always feels before the fight. You resist the anxiety, because the moment you step into battle all of that must fade away. It will be you fighting alongside your fellow soldiers, and it will be the sword hanging in your trusted baldric that keeps you alive.

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.

This classic medieval shirt is made from roughly woven cotton fabric and has a wide A-frame cut with a v-shaped neckline. This period shirt has three-quarter length sleeves and falls just above the hips, making it perfect for fighters and villagers who need clothing that will last. This cotton shirt serves well in warm weathered events due to its quality fabric. As a medieval shirt, it can be worn alone, under your armor or as a base layer beneath a more elegant costume, making it a precious addition to your costume wardrobe.

You want to dress like a king. With this shirt you can dress like VIking!

This historicool shirt is made from an excellent quality herringbone patterned cotton, with the design optimised for comfort and movement.

“He died before hitting the ground. Mere moments ago, he had been the predator chasing me as I scrambled over my fallen comrades on the battlefield. However, as if the Allfather himself had led my hand to find this lonely sword, our positions had suddenly reversed. As I stood victorious in a hurricane of death, I noticed it was carefully ornamented and made for our jarl. His time as a warlord had ended – and mine had begun.”

The Warlord Sword from Epic Armoury is part of our hybrid range. The blade is designed with a double fuller and comprises a fibreglass core embedded in closed-cell ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) foam coated with pigmented latex. The handle is made of polyurethane (PU) foam and features imitated gold and silver ornamentations loosely inspired by Nordic art from the Scandinavian Viking Age. Thus the sword fits exceedingly well in settings inspired by this historical period. Designwise, the Viking Sword is a fine alternative, also available in a battle-worn version, but if you seek an authentic design based on a real find, we recommend the EirikR Sword instead.

“The winter was relentless. Helt felt it as he left the great hall, which, too, was cold at this hour. His family had donned their winter attire months ago, but many peasants had no such luxury. There had even been whispers that this winter would be the final one. The Fimbul. His wife and children scoffed at such talk in public but enquired with him in the dark evenings. The fear of their future was clear in their eyes. He reassured them of the warmth to come, and no living soul knew that he also felt the clutches of doubt. But he knew high spirits were essential to survive and thrive in the North. Thus he proclaimed that spring would soon arrive. Also, this year.”

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Fimbul Pants shares the Viking Age design inspiration of Pants Arvid but features a high-quality herringbone wool blend. These pants are designed with an inner and no outer seam, featuring a centre gusset that runs along the entire rise and diagonal patterns on the legs for a better fit around the knees. They are available in two shades of grey, making them a great base to pair with more colourful items in a Nordic-inspired character kit.

“He casually counted the money in the pouch, placed it in his pocket, pulled the finger from the other pocket and threw it on the sand before us. We all recognised the finger. The henchman had been brutally successful in his endeavour, and we covered in hopes that the gods would forgive our deeds. The huge man turned away and mentioned that we would eventually end up in his pockets. Then he laughed out loud. We did not.”

Epic Armoury’s Ari Pants combines the classic design with the baggy legs of Pants Medieval with the herringbone-patterned cotton also used in the Viking-inspired Shirt Arvid and Pants Arvid. The pants are fitted with a cotton drawstring by the waist, top pockets, extra width above the knees and attached strings by the shins to allow a tight fit. A versatile design that will fit many different characters!

The Single Cotton Hose from Epic Armoury is a typical example of medieval fashion worn throughout the middle ages and renaissance period. This rough cotton hose is sold by the unit so you may personalize the look of your Larp character by mixing colors. Whether you play a peasant or squire, the hose should be a staple in your period wardrobe. Cotton hosen are both comfortable, and practical to wear during hot summer months and can be worn with braies for a typical historical look. This legging has a drawstring and can be attached to braies or a belt (sold separately), and is made to withstand the rigours of battle.

NOTE: A single hose is ONE LEG worth of pants. It is NOT a pair. This is a pant, singular.

The Armour Skirt "Tenebra" completes Mytholons Tenebra Armour Jacket set:
The skirt is made in the same style like the vesting. The upper layer consists of suede leather, which was backstitched on a cotton lining.
All that offers a good protection to the wearer. The stripes hang down on the thighs like a skirt does.
The two buckles and the tie-holes, together with the included strings, allow this skirt to be closed in the back of the weares body individually.
