Product description
The tradition of wearing a tabard over armor began during the Crusades. Surcoats helped prevent overheating by shielding the armor from direct sunlight. They also provided ideal protection for the hauberk and later helped protect plate armor from corrosion and rust. A front split lets a knight wear it more easily on horseback.
From the late 12th century, knights primarily wore long surcoats. By the mid-13th century, these garments were increasingly adorned with personal coats of arms and, in addition to knights, were sometimes worn by foot soldiers in their retinues. In the early 14th century, shorter surcoats came into fashion, and by the late 14th century, they were replaced by the jupont.
