Landsknecht Hat
Landsknecht Hat
The Landsknecht Hat is a bold, layered headpiece that owes its design to 16th-century German mercenaries who made fashion as permanent as their fighting. In profusion of color and rich in design, this cut-wool hat is perfect for anyone building a unique Landsknecht costume or simply looking for a way to add a touch of style to late-period Renaissance attire. One of Epic Armoury's Yoremade patterns, this hat is both historically accurate and durable, making it suitable for use in modern LARP, faire, or reenactment.
Made from gentle wool with a cotton lining, it's both comfortable and authentic, at a price that's ideal for costumed events and long-term outdoor use. And despite how extravagant it looks, it's also functional; the built-in ties make it possible for you to tie it around your chin, so it will not move even on the gustiest day or most brutal duel.
Based on the Frundsberg-Style Renaissance Hats
This piece is influenced by the Frundsberg hat, a thoroughly documented example of 16th-century headwear that wedded excessive shape with elegant structure. Excessive brim, layered felted wool, and contrasting slashes are reminiscences of mercenaries' rowdiness, who dressed to be seen and remembered.
Landsknechts were not only famous for their battle prowess, but also for their distinctive attire. This hat captures that energy and can be used as part of a full Landsknecht outfit or simply as an adornment to add poise to any Renaissance attire.
Features That Elevate the Look
-
Slashes in the outer wool: The dramatic look features layered wool panels with decorative slashes, showcasing two strikingly contrasting colors, in the same fashion as the originals.
-
Soft cotton lining: Maintains the hat at a comfortable wear-all-day temperature, even in the heat or as an addition to other headgear.
-
Chin ties for security: Practical cotton ties hold the hat firmly in place during exercise or windy conditions, requiring no adjustment.
-
In two classic color combinations: Choose from red/white or green/red to match your outfit or affiliation.
-
Three size options: S/M, L/XL, and 2XL, sweeter fit for various head shapes and wig styles.
Disclaimer: Feathers and coifs, as seen here, aren't included, but can be added for the ultimate oomph.
A Must-Have for Landsknecht and Renaissance Ensembles
Whether you’re charging through a battlefield reenactment, parading through the faire in full regalia, or playing a flamboyant noble at a LARP, the Landsknecht Hat finishes the look. It’s a detail that adds life and personality to your ensemble, and one that easily sets your character apart.
Its shape complements puffed sleeves, slashed doublets, or gathered dresses, making it a perfect fit for both male and female fashion. And although the feathers and coifs are optional extras, the hat itself is a colourful focal point in any late-period costume.
Own the Look, Make it Yours.
From the Renaissance city's cobblestone streets to the muddy camps of the fantasy army, the Landsknecht Hat is a hat that radiates confidence and drama. Pin it on, put it on, and stride out, because this isn't merely a medieval hat. It's a statement.
