The original Replica is based on the Historical nalbinding technique. An outfit made with the famous Oslo stitch weave. This hand-woven pattern/ technique was recreated after Norway's famous finding of the 11th century.

Needle binding, also known as nålbinding, nalbinding, or naalbinding is one of the oldest textile techniques known to mankind since ancient times. One of the most popular types of knitting is called Oslo Stitch, which owes its name to the discovered nalbound mittens from Oslo, dating from the 11th to the 12th century. Oslo Stitch allows for making a fairly dense texture that protects well from the cold, fits well, and does not constrain movements. Similar to Oslo naalbound mittens were also found in Sweden, Finland, and on the territory of Kyivan Rus. Nalbound socks are known as well as Coppergate socks also known as Jorvik Socks or York socks, dating back to the 10th century. There are also beautiful examples from Antiquity and Medieval times, particularly found in the context of late Roman and Byzantine clothing. Enhance your impression with our historical socks, which are perfect for historical events, medieval fairs, or LARP games. Made of 100% wool.
