Product description
This doublet with a close-fitting cut is made of cotton and features contrasting details. The centre front is closed with a wine-red lace cord. There are also lace cords at the sleeve cuffs and the bottom hem. The cords at the bottom allow hose to be directly attached to the doublet. The doublet is lined with a light, contrasting cotton fabric. This is not an armoured doublet. The doublet, with its fitted style, appeared from the High Middle Ages and replaced the long and wide tunic. It was combined with trousers or hose, which were attached directly to the doublet with laces. Typical features of a doublet are a close-fitting shape, a small stand-up collar, and a closed or buttoned front. Initially, the doublet was worn as a high-necked under-jacket. During the Renaissance, the neckline became lower, and the doublet was more richly decorated. Usually, a light shirt or undershirt was worn under the doublet. Depictions of doublets from the late Middle Ages and the Renaissance are found in abundance, for example, in the Codices Palatini Germanici 466. The doublet was an arming jacket and could be worn under armor. The laces can be used to fasten armor pieces.
