Medieval garments like the Penda Suede Jerkin originally served as armour padding, but the design soon became a part of everyday dress. This predecessor to the modern vest suits many roles and is a great addition to your wardrobe. The jerkin is handmade from suede leather. The cap sleeves and stitched hemline give it a layered look. More stitching highlights the lace-up neckline. Split leather strings and metal eyelets adjust the fit on either side of the waist. Whether you create a historical character or one inspired by fantasy, the Penda Suede Jerkin is a fine choice in medieval apparel.
