“First Adventure” Children’s Hood
Cotton chaperon for kids
ArmStreet’s first collection of garments for children is here! After many years of planning, we’re excited to finally share with you a line of items that allow your little ones to join you on your adventure in style! With a focus on natural fabrics, durable construction and comfortable fit, all of the garments in this collection have been designed and patterned specifically to fit children.
Inspired by the medieval period, this hood is a great addition to any costume because it adds a layer and is applicable to a number of different time periods and cultures. Hoods have the added bonus of being incredibly functional: they can protect you from the rain and sun, or be worn down on a more pleasant day. The bottom of the hood drapes slightly over the shoulders, with a number of gores to make sure it gets the right shape and doesn’t bunch up anywhere. We have constructed this little hood from the same 100% cotton that we use for adult clothing, which is very high quality and strong.
To ensure that your little one stays safe and happy, we’ve altered a few aspects of this design to make it more suitable. Instead of a drawstring or cords to hold it shut, we have sewn in an enclosed elastic at the back. This means that the neck of the hood will stretch, making it easy to put on and take off without the danger of lacing getting tangled or caught on a tree branch. For the same reason, we decided not to give this hood a liripipe or dangling tail at the back, and have opted for a cute little pointed at the end instead.
All of the seams on this hood are well finished, which adds to the general durability of the item, meaning it will serve your tiny adventurer well and probably be passed on to another at the end of their journey. We have two sizes available, depending on head circumference.
If you or your little adventurer have any questions about this item, please don’t hesitate to contact us.

Pay attention to one important thing: most kids, especially when it comes to smaller ones, are used to wearing way softer clothing, which is usually made of extremely soft and stretch fabric. So there is a chance your kid won't be happy dealing with medieval clothes limitations and natural fabric early on. As we experimented on our own kids, statistically all of them get used to this after a while – normally when linen gets softer and shapes a tad on the owner's body. But please be very conscious about it in the beginning and make sure your kid is really comfortable with the medieval costume. We tried our best to make this clothing as comfortable and loose and flowing as possible, but natural fabric and ancient patterns have their disadvantages, so the final decision is on you: we can't guarantee that any kid will be comfortable wearing our medieval clothes.
