Product description
The chaperon or Gugel is one of the most characteristic garments from the Middle Ages: practical, versatile, and worn by almost everyone. This Gugel has been carefully crafted in a style reminiscent of worn clothing with a weathered appearance, yet looks brand new as though it has already experienced many adventures. It is well-suited to almost any simple, less affluent representation and fits both peasants and beggars alike. Whether you represent the common folk or the lower class, the chaperon Skjöld adds authenticity and personality to your costume for medieval and Viking festivals. This hood is meticulously constructed in a "used look" style, based on the historical original, and stands out with its worn appearance! If you want to look as though you've just rolled through the mud, you've come to the right place. This is how real medieval life looked! Our garments from the Used Look Series maintain their dirty, worn appearance, even when fresh out of the washing machine. Mix and match with other colours and styles to create your own costume. This Used Look is particularly well-suited to realistic-looking (early) medieval costumes and is also suitable for wearing in battles.
