If you’re looking for a solid, all-around medieval shirt, the Shirt Ducio is a great place to start. It’s based on styles from the High and Late Middle Ages, so it’s pretty much the "standard" look for anyone from a commoner to a knight taking a break. It’s a simple, reliable piece that fits into almost any historical or fantasy kit without looking out of place.
This product is made from 100% Cotton Crepe, which is very different than regular stiff flat cotton. It has an authentic natural slightly crinkled quality and texture that makes it look even better when working in an outdoor environment. It is breathable so even if you have multiple layers or wear something heavier than normal, you will be comfortable and free to breathe.
To allow maximum ease of movement, we’ve updated the historical cut of the sleeves and shoulders using modern tailoring techniques. The construction allows you to raise and lower your arms and have a full range of motion while working around a campfire, swinging a sword, or performing other physical activities without any interfering bulkiness or constrictiveness of fabric. Our historical layers provide all that you need in a traditional dress; they are truly functional and fashionable at the same time!
Why it's a must-have:
Cotton Crepe Fabric: 100% cotton that’s soft, light, and has a cool natural texture that looks the part.
Fits Any Character: Based on designs from the Middle Ages, it works for almost any time period or character type.
Made to Move: We tweaked the historical patterns so it fits better around the arms and shoulders for modern bodies.
Easy to Layer: It’s light enough to tuck into your trousers or wear under a doublet without adding a ton of bulk.
