This Medieval Templar Knight costume builds its crusader-style appearance around a chainmail-look hood and shirt, a leather belt and, in the full sets, studded leather bracers. Black and grey versions offer the same selection of pieces. The design is an original medieval knight costume, giving you room to develop your own interpretation through a tabard, surcoat or other accessories you supply.
Polyester is the listed material, and the chainmail styling supplies the medieval mail effect.
Black and Grey Across the Knight Selections
Black Full Set and Grey Full Set each contain a hood, shirt, belt and bracers. Choose either colour when you want that combination together. For a group of medieval knights, you could alternate black and grey while keeping the same hooded, belted theme.
The black and grey full front photographs are useful for comparing the colour options. Side and profile photographs are available for both full sets, offering additional views of each version. Pair a front view with a profile view when planning how to photograph your own hooded knight.
Choosing the Hood, Shirt and Belt Combination
The Black Hood Shirt And Belt and Grey Hood Shirt And Belt selections each supply the hood, shirt and belt. These options suit a knight outfit where you want that combination and intend to use your own forearm accessories. The studded bracers belong to the full sets.
Black Hood Only and Grey Hood Only supply just the hood. If you already have a medieval tunic and belt, either hood could become the chainmail-style element in an outfit assembled from your own pieces. Adult sizes are offered across the selections, with XS and XXXL among the available labels.
Separate black and grey images also cover the hood, shirt and belt selections, allowing you to focus on that combination before deciding whether you want bracers. The hood photographs cover black and grey, with an additional detail view for the grey hood. These are useful references when the head covering is the only piece you want to add.
Studded Bracers and the Separate Piece Photographs
The studded leather bracers are the extra component in both full sets. A dedicated bracer detail photograph gives you a closer look at this accessory, while the black and grey pieces photographs let you consider the hood, shirt, belt and bracers individually.
For a portrait centred on the hood and studded bracers, try bringing a forearm into the frame beside the shirt. You could also make a paired set of photographs: a front view to show the belted shirt, followed by a closer portrait featuring the hood.
Adding a Tabard to the Crusader Outline
A plain tabard or surcoat is an optional addition over the chainmail-style shirt. Leave some of the shirt visible beneath it if you want the mail effect to remain part of your interpretation. Keeping the hood visible would carry that same theme into a portrait framed above the belt.
Trousers, boots, a sword and a shield are not included. Supply your own trousers and boots, then consider a prop sword alongside the hooded shirt and belt. A tabard or surcoat is also your own addition; choose a plain version if you want the black or grey chainmail styling and studded bracers to remain the focus.
