Handwoven Leg Wraps – Authentic Historical Reproductions
Handwoven leg wraps, also known as wickelbander or winnings, are a popular element of historical clothing from the Migration Period, Viking Age, and Medieval times. They play an important functional role, securely fastening around the leg to provide support and stability during long walks. Additionally, they retain heat effectively—even when wet—and help protect your legs and the fabric of your trousers.

Leg wraps are an essential part of an ancient wardrobe. Throughout history, they provided extra protection, warmth in daily life, and support during long journeys.
Our leg wraps are meticulously handwoven on the old and traditional hand-wooden loom from 100% wool.
Replicating the motifs and proportions of archaeological textile finds.
This version is an extended design, offering extra length and volume for those seeking greater coverage. We use only high-quality European wool, as maintaining the local origin of our products is important to us.

These wraps are made from 100% natural wool and can be additionally dyed using natural dyes for an authentic historical touch.
