Men's Leif Medieval Under-Tunic | Bordeaux Cotton

The Leif Under-Tunic is the foundational layering piece of any authentic medieval wardrobe. Worn by men across all classes from the early to the high Middle Ages, this coarse-cotton tunic captures the rugged, practical spirit of the era — and serves as the essential base layer beneath everything from overtunics to wool coats.

Long sleeves, a straight cut with round neckline, and practical slits at the neck and sides make the Leif as functional as it is historically convincing. Pair it with chausses or medieval pants for a simple look, or layer it under a wool overtunic and cowl for a fully realized period outfit.
