Calf wrap

Discover the variety of calf wraps

Our Viking calf wraps, also known as leg wraps, are more than just a fashion accessory - they are an important part of Viking Age clothing. Historically inspired, they offer protection from the cold and injuries and add the finishing touch to more than just your Viking outfit. Whether for reenactment, LARP or medieval markets - we have a wide selection of leg wraps in various colors and patterns, such as the popular herringbone pattern.

Why leg wraps?

Viking leg wraps, also known as wrapping gaiters or calf bandages, were originally intended to keep the legs warm and protect the lower legs. However, they not only provide warmth, but also stability when walking and serve as additional protection against injuries. The wraps are made from robust natural materials such as cotton and can be fastened with fibulae depending on preference.

Traditional use of calf wraps

Calf wraps are traditionally wrapped around the lower leg, from the heel to the knee. This wrapping technique ensures that the tension is evenly distributed so that the wraps remain firmly in place while being worn. They are often secured with fibulae, which are not only practical but also decorative. When wrapped correctly, leg wraps provide comfortable support and an authentic feel.

Calf wraps in different colors and materials

Our calf wraps are available in different colors to match the rest of your garment. Whether you prefer a simple natural shade or stronger colors that highlight your Viking clothing - you are sure to find what you are looking for. The herringbone pattern, which remains true to the historical pattern, is particularly popular. Cotton is the preferred material as it is breathable and still offers enough warmth to protect the legs on cold days.

Viking calf wraps for children and adults

We offer calf wraps in different sizes so that not only adults but also children are perfectly equipped. The wraps protect your little ones' legs and feet during outdoor adventures and ensure that they can slip into the role of little Vikings in style.

Calf wraps - practical function and stylish accessory

In addition to the practical function of keeping legs and feet warm and preventing injuries, calf wraps are also an important fashion accessory. They round off any Viking & medieval outfit and make your garb historically inspired and functional at the same time. Whether you wear the wraps under your trousers or as a visible part of your garment, they are versatile.

Care and durability of your Viking calf wraps

As our leg wraps are made from high-quality natural materials, you should treat them with care in order to enjoy them for a long time. Cotton is easy to clean, but please note that it may shrink slightly the first time you wash it. Wrap them well after cleaning so that they keep their shape and continue to serve you as a loyal companion.

Calf wraps are part of the basic equipment of every historical Viking garment. Combine them with tunics, pants and other accessories to complete your outfit. The wraps not only offer comfort and protection, but also add authenticity and depth to your Viking look.
