Men's Robin Hood Outlaw Costume

Medieval Men's Robin Hood Outlaw Costume

Historical Inspiration And Period Usage

The legends of the noble outlaw Robin Hood were formed in medieval England, predominantly between the 12th and 14th centuries. Although he is a figure shrouded in folk myths, this costume faithfully reflects the romantic period conception of free medieval rangers, hunters, and outlaws. The core of this ensemble is a long duvetyn doublet reaching below the buttocks, which provides the archer with necessary torso protection without restricting movement in any way while drawing a bow or fighting in close quarters. An extremely striking and practical element is the wide round collar (cut like a short cape), which safely protects the shoulders from rain and cold in deep forests. The collar, as well as the contrasting stripes on the sleeves and chest, are richly decorated with metal rivets, giving the garment a robust military character. The doublet is belted at the waist with the included belt featuring a distinctive buckle, which perfectly completes the masculine silhouette. The sturdy cotton (duvetyn) offers great abrasion resistance, while the wool blend guarantees warmth.

Garment Maintenance And Care

Due to the proportion of natural wool and the large number of metal rivets, we recommend leaving the cleaning of this costume to a professional dry cleaner. For home care, strictly follow the instructions in the Cleaning and maintenance instructions. Never dry the garment in a tumble dryer and avoid chemical bleaches. Ensure that the metal rivets do not remain wet for extended periods to prevent the risk of rust forming on the fabric. The trousers and other accessories shown in the photographs are not included in the delivery.

Recommended Medieval Accessories

For an absolutely perfect portrayal of the Sherwood outlaw from the 12th to the 14th century, we strongly recommend complementing the doublet with a classic felt Robin Hood hat and narrow Gothic trousers. Your look will then be brought to absolute perfection by high medieval leather boots, a quality bow, and a quiver full of arrows!
