Brown Cowl Capellus - Stylish Winter Scarf for Women & Men - Perfect for Cold Weather, Outdoor Activities, and Fashion Accessories

Product Description

The Cowl Capellus is a high medieval everyday garment with short sendelbinde, i.e. short tip, which was worn in this form mostly for pragmatic reasons by hunters, farmers and travelers for protection against wind and weather. Our example is closed at the front and the coarse, unkempt cotton gives it a robust, authentic look.

From the 14th century, it begins its entry into the fashion world and is now often worn colorfully or with an overlong sendelbinde, which is looped around the neck, as can be seen in the murals at Runkelstein Castle near Bolzano.

Even though it is historically a man's garment, it also enjoys great popularity among women, especially at LARP, and is incorporated into many different costume concepts.
