Arvid Shirt

You want to dress like a king. With this shirt you can dress like VIking!
And that is arguably better because it means you know who's holding the axe while you're the king.

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

You are laughing too loud. You realize it must be scaring your enemy, because no one wants to face you on the frontline anymore. They think you are crazed. Maybe you are, because the adrenaline of being in a battle has left you feeling drunk with exhilaration.

If no one will come to you, it’s time to bring the fight to them! One poor soldier desperately strikes at you and you feel the thud of his sword against your armour, but it hardly makes a scratch. You see the terror in his eyes as your laugh fills the field and you bring the strength of your Viking Short Axe down upon him.

You are Raynor Ironshood. Let them fear you. Let them all fear you.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s new improved version of the bestselling Viking Short Axe is reinforced to make it even more durable. The axe-head has a 18 cm edge and a golden embellishment that matches the pommel. The handle is 45 cm long and carved to look like rough wood grain without a specific grip, encouraging the user to make use of the axe’s versatile design.

Neutral in style and manoeuvrable enough to be used with almost any other product in the Epic Armoury collection, this latex axe is the perfect addition to any character--particularly a Viking or Dwarf. 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 kit.

HISTORY

• First hafted axe was created about 6,000 B.C. using birch-tar and raw-hide lashings to fix the blade to its handle
• Many battle axes doubled as tools and were cheaper to make than swords

The street is a hard place to conduct business, but it’s a way of life you’ve become very good at keeping. Two coppers jingle in the pouch hanging from your Broad Belt, but by the end of the day you’re determined to increase the lot to a gold or two. A good card game and a poor ol’ sap is all it takes.

On your way to your regular spot you pass a lovely lady in a fine dress. You may be a ruffian, but with your candid smile you give the lady a tip of your fanciful top hat. She looks flattered, which is a good distraction...because now you’ve got a silver to add to the copper in your pouch.

DETAILS

This bestselling Epic Armoury Broad Belt is a hefty leather belt fitted with D-rings for attaching additional equipment.

Fasten the belt by securing its two 70 cm long belt tongues over a heavy leather plate on the front, locked in place by two rounded, brass belt buckles.

A SHARP TOUCH OF HISTORY

 “One of the very best swords anyone in the Northern Lands has carried…”

– The Saga of King Rolf Kraki, chapter 30

Have you ever dreamt of wielding a Viking sword with a historically authentic design? Then your saga is about to begin! The EirikR Sword is made as a collaboration between artisans of Epic Armoury and archaeologists from Lejre Land of Legends. It is designed to match the Osted Sword found in 1887 near the town of Osted in Lejre, Denmark. Due to its pattern-welded blade and the herringbone ornamentation with silver and copper on the crossguard and pommel, archaeologists assess that the sword most likely belonged to a king or a highly esteemed housecarl. As part of our Stronghold Master Collection, the EirikR Sword is a durable, high-quality LARP weapon that adheres to history without compromising safety. A perfect weapon for any Viking roleplayer or historical reenactor, stalwartly standing within mead halls, aboard Viking ships or on the open battlefield. The eyes of the Allfather rest upon you!

Odin had two ravens perched up on his shoulders, Hugin and Munin, whispering the secrets of the world into his ears.

These days we'd say that's really weird, and we'd do our best not to sit next to that guy on the train, but at least you can look cool in this iron and nickel torc instead.

THE REST IS HISTORY!

The Northman was surprisingly agile and skilled. His sword expressed no hacking and hammering of fools. Rather, it pierced the air elegantly from behind the shield like a viper waiting for a moment of opportunity. The shield, covered in leather and painted with a swirly pattern, was applied in attacks that quickly outmanoeuvred opponents. I had heard stories of savage berserkers in the North. Instead, I witnessed refined techniques and sophisticated precision.

Epic Armoury’s GastiR Shield is made in collaboration with Lejre Land of Legends, a Danish centre for historical-archaeological research and communication. Compared to our previous Viking-inspired shields, the GastiR Shield is adjusted to improve authenticity on several factors: The shield boss size is slightly reduced for a better fit with a non-armoured hand. The shield front imitates a leather cover, based on research indicating that this was applied to shields for durability. The shield is available in four different patterns, all chosen from interpretations of shields depicted on the Oseberg Tapestry. While it is impossible to claim complete authenticity, we can confidently say this is our best attempt.

The GastiR Shield will serve you well when fighting for clan and king!

PANTS FOR THE RUN!

“The skirmish was successful, although a hasty retreat still awaited. They ran to the shores and quickly handled the ropes on the tied longboat. He took a few hasty steps into the salty fjord water, felt the soaking of his woven pants and grinned as they all worked in concert. Old Vikings knew when to fight and when to run. Those who did not died young. The Einherjar awaited soon enough, but not today. This day belonged to the living clan folk.”

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Pants Arvid are made from high-quality herringbone-patterned cotton and inspired by designs from the early Viking Age. They are characterised by an inner seam and no outer seam, a centre gusset along the entire rise and pattern angled diagonally on the legs for a better fit around the knees. The pants are available in two shades of grey, making the pants a fine base in combination with more colourful items in nordic-inspired character kit.

If you're wearing this shirt and two wolves decide to wake up and hang out with you, we have some news that's going to ruin your day.

You will never tell them which might be true. Instead, as you sit in camp and wash the blood from your Odin Shirt, you simply listen...and smirk.

Shield Bash!

Your shield sends a goblin clear off his feet, landing in a pile of his buddies. They miscalculated your massive strength, and are reeling backwards on the retreat. So much for supposed alliances--you can feel the goblin blood soaked clear down to your Tunic. They have learned too late that betraying an Orc of the Black Water would mean death. It’s too bad they won’t be able to share the word with their kin.

You adjust your great shield, letting out a battle cry of rage as another goblin aims for your ankles. Shield Bash. This one goes flying another fifteen paces.

The tunic was not only worn by romans in the ancient world, but was a favorited piece of clothing even in the high and late medieval period in Europe. It has been a basic piece of undergarment for men and women and constantly changed its appearance due to modern cuts and sewing techniques.

Mytholon's Gadaric tunic is used as a basis for most medieval costumes. The bottom widens slightly and has a central cut in the front and back to allow better movement of the legs. The wide cut sleeves will let you move your arms unhindered when dancing of fighting.

Worn as an undergarment (under any Gambeson from our range), it will keep you cool, yet warm enough and drains off humidity from the wearers body.

Buckle up this tunic with any of our ranges belts to wear it as an overgarment. This will have you wearing a costume for itself. Combine it with a pair of pants and a belt bag and have a basic character dressed for adventures or your next visit on the medieval fair.

The Elyona is ideal for elves, rangers, assassins, and general adventurers looking for something to help accentuate hips and slim lines. The pointed shoulders, the wide collar and the serrated neckline give it an unusual, fantastic look. It has slits at the sides, front and back, which is why it allows a lot of freedom of movement. The side lacings ensure the desired fit as a sort of integrated bodice.
The tunic can be individually adapted to its wearer and sits firmly and comfortably even with lots of movement in battle. A perfect basis for many costume ideas. 

Customer Note: This is a feminine cut garment. The sizing chart is located at the end of the images in this listing.
