Grey & Black Woven Medieval Tunic
- In stock, ready to ship
- Backordered, shipping soon
A two-tone woven medieval tunic in grey and black, with a faux-suede lace-up panel at the chest and matching suede-effect cuffs. The grey body carries the black detailing, so it reads clearly across a field rather than blurring into one flat colour. Lightweight and cut wide at the shoulders, it moves with you.
Designed by Chow, made to her specifications since 1994.

What stands out
- The faux-suede lace-up panel down the chest, the piece of the tunic people notice first.
- Two-tone weave: grey through the body, black on the panel and cuffs, so the contrast holds at distance.
- Cut wide across the shoulders with a short sleeve, for reach and swing without the fabric pulling.
- Worn alone or layered over or under armour, it sits flat enough to take a gambeson on top.
Most medieval tunics at this price are a single flat colour with a printed placket. This one is woven in two tones with a real suede-effect panel and cuffs, which is what gives it the depth up close and the read from across a field. The lace-up front is the detail an owner notices at the third event, not the first.
Why it costs what it does
You are paying for the two-tone woven construction and the faux-suede panel and cuffs, not a print on a plain shell. It is cut wide at the shoulders so it works over or under armour, and the weave is hard-wearing enough for a full weekend of combat. The detailing is Chow's own, made to her pattern.
It is worth being straight about the fabric. It is non-stretch, so the room to move is built into the cut rather than the give. The colour holds deepest if you dry clean it, though a cold machine wash is fine when you need it.
Who this is for
- Warriors and knights who want a tunic that layers with armour.
- Mages, wizards and sorcerers who want the grey and black without a bright colour.
- Nobles and townsfolk who want the suede-effect detail rather than a plain shirt.
- LARP, cosplay and Renaissance faire, worn alone or as a base layer.
