Medieval Linen Braies

Do you need a good pair of underpants? These medieval braies (also known as breeches) might be just what you need.

Braies were worn by men throughout the middle ages. The exact style changed according to exact time period and location. These braies are based on earlier garments, during the late-medieval era and the renaissance, braies became smaller and more form-fitting. 

Historically, linen was a popular choice for underwear, and was slowly replaced with cotton when cotton became more readily available in Europe after the Renaissance. Linen was comfortable to wear on the skin, easy to wash and protected the outer-garments from the body’s sweat and oils.  
Our reproduction features two legs, joined by a wide gusset. They are sewn into a waistband which closes with a drawstring to get the perfect, snug fit. 

These braies are made of natural colour cotton/linen blend (87% cotton, 13% linen)
