Size Chart<\/p>

Note: <\/em>Sizing on our 14th century cotte is judged by chest size because it is meant to fit loosely in the waist and to be worn with a belt to complete the shape and look (as shown in our photos). The length given is that of the cotte unbelted.<\/p>

About our 14th c. Cotte<\/p>

In the 14th century clothing moved away from simple variants of the tunic towards sleek, elegant lines that emphasized the human form. Beginning mid-century, the man\u2019s cotte made a particularly radical departure from earlier fashions. The new garment was shorter (mid-thigh to knee length) than the old\u00a0surcotte<\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0tunic<\/a>, with a more fitted body and, for the first time, a full length, buttoned front closure. This new garment became popular with noble and townsman alike, remaining fashionable well into the 15th century, while also giving rise to the more extreme\u00a0cotehardie<\/a>.<\/p>

Our cotte is based on contemporary artwork from a variety of sources. We have retained all of the classic elements of the historical design: long, full sleeves that taper at the wrists, a body that flares at the hips, and cast pewter buttons based on a contemporary pattern and arranged in a uniquely medieval placement. As was done in the 14th century, this cotte can be worn alone over a linen\u00a0shirt<\/a>, or beneath a\u00a0houppelande<\/a>. Revival cottes are available in linen \u2013 the ubiquitous fabric of medieval Europe -, wool, and raw silk for the man of means. All edges are finished or fully enclosed, improving both aesthetics and durability.<\/p>
