Medieval Shirt Corvin with Lacing, natural-coloured
A loose cut shirt is a classic of medieval clothing and a staple piece of garment for any man planning to attend a medieval market.
What makes this medieval shirt stand out from the crowd is the lacing that runs all the way down the sleeves and graces the neckline as well. Further details such as the stand-up collar and the double shoulder yoke with adjacent gathers round off the shirt's unique design. The shirt is made of cotton and is very comfortable in fit.
Historically, shirts did not come into fashion until the late Middle Ages, when trousers began to get tighter and tops shorter. In the Renaissance, the shirt had eventually evolved into an essential piece of clothing.
Our shirt Corvin has a nice period flair and is a bestseller within the medieval scene.

This medieval shirt is part of Battle-Merchant's line of period clothing and medieval garments for men, women and children. From the first sketch to the last stitch, this garment was planned, designed and handcrafted with particular attention to detail. Our clothes are modeled (sometimes accurately, sometimes less so) on historical examples, grave finds and original museum pieces where they exist. We always endeavour to keep the necessary adjustments to today's standards, e.g. in terms of size and manufacturing process, to a minimum. Just see for yourself!
