Step into the world of the Vikings with our woollen winingas Janne – essential accessories for authentic Viking clothing. Inspired by historical finds and crafted with great attention to detail, these Viking winingas combine historical design with modern craftsmanship.
The winingas are made from 100% high-quality wool in a diamond twill weave. Characteristic of this weave is the small pattern of offset lozenges, which is particularly prominent due to the use of light and dark brown threads in the warp and weft. As this weave gives the fabric good crossway elasticity, diamond twill leg wraps are particularly easy to put on and comfortable to wear. Surviving examples of this twill weave, which was quite common, are e.g. the Thorberg trousers (3rd c.) or the apron dress from Birka, grave 973 (9th-10th c.).
The wraps are made from a single piece of fabric and the edges are finished with a simple flatlock seam to prevent any uncomfortable pressure points. They are fastened with a plain tie. Sold as a pair.
Leg wraps, also known as winingas or puttees, were woven on narrow looms. A staple piece of Germanic clothing, winingas were wrapped from the ankle to below the knee and served as a substitute for socks. However, they were much more than a means to keep warm, as the also protected the legs from injury. They were worn by both men and women.
Whether at medieval markets, Viking gatherings, or reenactment events, these woollen winingas are the perfect addition to your Viking garb. They are ideal for those who value natural materials, quality craftsmanship, and a design that truly captures the spirit of an era long past.
