Medieval Costumes in the epochs
The middle ages is commonly divided in three big epochs. At the question which medieval costume you choose it is very important which epoch the representation is associating with. In the european early middle ages, which has taken place from the 4. to the 10. century, the status differences in the clothing were not very pronounced in difference with later epochs. The clothing was oriented strongly on a pragmatic point of view. From the 11. to the 12. century - the high middle ages - status differences were made clear through clothing.
Fashion got more important and would contain more expensive decorations, new fabrics and new colors.
The late middle ages begun in the 13. century. Fashion were now embussed through unpragmatic but more representative clothes. Now female hats were very popular, that were wrapped so hard around the chin so women couldn't speak anymore.

Wool Winingas Aki - Yellow
Winingas have been worn since the Iron Age. The Romans at Hadrian's Wall used them, as did the Germanic tribes, Byzantines, Franks, Alamanni, Bavarians, Wends (Slavs), and later in the Middle Ages, the Normans and Vikings. Winingas were widespread throughout Central and Northern Europe.

In the beginning, winingas served as a substitute for socks. From foot to lower leg, they are wrapped over the pants to below the knee and fixed with a fibula to protect and keep the wearer warm.
On the basis of textile finds in Damendorf, Oberaltendorf, Bernuthsfeld and the Thorsberg moor, there’s proof these have been worn from the 2nd to the 8th century, and also on the carpet of Bayeux from the year 1066, winingas are shown.
Our Wool Winingas Aki stay in this tradition and are made of wool with the dimensions 380cm x 10cm. Of course, we supply two winingas, you do not buy socks individually.£17.99
