Product description
A houppelande was a loose-fitting, long upper garment with wide, flared sleeves worn by both men and women in Europe during the late medieval period. The inside was often lined with fur. Later, this garment became popular among professional groups and continued to exist in the western world as the well-known academic and judicial robes. At that time, men always wore the houppelande over a doublet.
The houppelande appeared around 1360 and remained fashionable well into the following century. The garment originated from the herigaut, a similar garment from the 13th century with hanging sleeves. The edges of the houppelande were often decorated by cutting them into decorative shapes, such as scalloped patterns, crenellations, or even leaf shapes.
This woolen houppelande is perfect for medieval reenactment.
