Men wore chaperons outside, usually with coifs and occasionally with surcote. Hoods had become fashionable by the 14th century, and they were no longer just practical outdoor garments. They assumed a more closely fitted shape, cut with a long, drooping point, called a liripipe, sometimes worn jauntily over the shoulder. These new forms of hood are generally named chaperons, which is the one you are seeing here. Depictions of fashionable men in the mid-14th century show them wearing this headgear with daring new cote-hardies. The chaperon is most often worn with the hood down, but some are seen to wear theirs up. Made from a soft polysuede, to give a soft and delicate feel, the chaperon’s premium linen lining is fully attached along the front and back seams and at the bottom hem. All seams and edges are finished.It features a simple design, which allows you to accessorize and personalize this simple yet elegant headgear exactly how you’d like! The design and the premium materials used for the construction of the chaperon make it incredibly easy to wear; simply put it on over the head through the round neck and you are set to go! The Archer’s Chaperon comes in two sizes (regular and plus) and four color combinations: Black/black, gold-fleur-de-lis (print) Black/natural Green/natural Brown/natural Note: If you’d like to go one step further, add one of our matching tabards and/or 3-piece Renaissance outfits for a complete look. Please do keep in mind that as we have to fold the costume/ cloak/robe/capelet to ship it, you may find wrinkles when you unpack it. Hanging the garment should do the trick to smooth out any creases.
