Viking Clothing

The Vikings frequently crafted their clothing from wool, a material that helped to protect them from fierce winters and could be handcrafted with relative ease. Viking men often wore long tunics and trousers, which were held up by a belt or a sash. In cold weather, the Vikings added a fur-trimmed cloak or long-sleeved jerkin to this ensemble to keep themselves adequately warm. Many Viking cloaks were fastened at the shoulder with a brooch or a pin. For foot protection, Viking warriors often wore sturdy leather boots.

Viking women wore clothing similar to that of men, often substituting a long shift with a Norse overdress in place of a tunic. Cloaks, shawls, and head kerchiefs were also worn by women. We carry an excellent assortment of Norse clothing like Rus pants, dresses, tunics, shirts, belts, and shoes to transform you into a Viking for Renaissance fairs, reenactments, and stage productions.
