The medieval sleeveless surcoat stands among the most iconic garments of medieval Europe, symbolizing both elegance and utility. Worn by noblewomen, merchants, and commoners from the 12th to 15th centuries, it was traditionally layered over a kirtle, gown, or underdress. Its purpose was to protect the finer fabrics underneath and to create a graceful outer look. With its open sides and flowing cut, it gave freedom of movement, ventilation, and a layered look that highlighted the garments beneath.   The surcoat's loose drape ensures comfort without compromising authenticity. 100% wool
