Viking natural linen short undertunic
"On these..., who had the bodies of women, nature bestowed the souls of men"
Saxo Grammaticus (c. XII century)
Short Chemise “Eydis the Springdancer”
Viking knee-length natural linen undertunic
So, what are your plans for today? Cooking dinner or training your dragon? Embroidering the new tunic or climbing the mountains? Picking up berries in the forest or kicking some asses defeating some enemies on the battlefield? Whatever you are up to, we've got you covered – in addition to our full-length Viking undertunic, now you can order this practical shortened version. Viking tunics didn't differ much in terms of the gender of the wearer but we've made some alterations to the historical pattern to better fit the modern stature. A slimmer silhouette also helps reduce the extra fabric gathering when you have lots of layers.
The undertunic is made of fine natural flax linen of high quality. It has no decorations and features a short cut at the front of the neckline complemented by ties. The length goes almost to the knee and is unrivalled for any kind of physical activity from dragon riding to brushwood collecting.
The natural fine flax linen we use for the undergarments combines outstanding durability with unprecedented softness. What can be better for your woollen or heavily decorated ceremonial costumes than a base layer that can be easily changed and will protect the outer layer from sweat? And what can be better for your skin during hot summer events than soft-to-touch natural fiber featuring sun protection and incredible moisture-absorbing qualities? As soon as you've found your perfect length and fit, we advise you to get a few chemises and reduce the time spent in the laundromat's queues in favour of more exciting activities.
