    Head-coverings were a critical component of dress in the Middle Ages. Hoods were common with men and women of all classes, and came in a wide variety of forms: long tailed or liripipe, short-tailed, dagged or straight hems, either pull-over or with an open front that was buttoned or pinned closed. Only the sumptuousness of the fabric, elaborateness of the dagging, or extreme length of the tail distinguished the hood of a duke from that of a villein. Men wore their hoods alone or with a plain linen coif beneath or a hat over, while women seem to have worn the hoods alone or with a wimple. In general, the most extreme version of this style with the longest tail or, liripipe, was typical in the mid to late fourteenth century while our short-tailed version is more typical of earlier fourteenth century portrayals. It is offered in the same colors as our popular linen tunics, cottes and gowns. Made of 100% linen this hood is joined in the front for the ease of pull-over wear and is a cool and authentic solution to keeping the sun at bay.

    A lord sports a simple brown linen short tailed hood, trying in vain to hide his status, but his burgundy and gold Brocade Doublet reveals his wealth for all to see. He complements this doublet with a pair of black Joined-Hose, with a lovely pair of tall riding boots. Underneath he wears a collared shirt and a pair of braies. He completes the look with a Rosette belt, blue wool garters, and natural arming points.
