Medieval cowls

My newest GraceArt cowl / cloak arrived in completely sealed packaging, brand new, it came with 2 Fasteners, a small classic style Brooch & 1 Clasps (a locking pin) to secure the Cowl /Cloak closed. I have bought a few different colors un the last 2 years, Brown, Black and my new one is Rust Red. Graceart is a very accommodating company. In that they added several colors to their selection after I sent them an email with certsin color requests and color name recommendations that soon after they actually added to their line up. Im sad to say that it took me over 2 years to come back and buy one of these colors I asked for. And GraceArt team, I certainly will get more of those colors I requested in the near future! The picture I showed is an example of the brooches and the fabric color samples. Now keep in mind the Red Rust is brand new, but the picture of this fabric is not quite as good as the color in real life, but its close. Both the Brown and Black are Ive had over a year and they have been "Hand Washed" a few times. I have not washed them any other way except by hand, and hung to dry, and I personally would not put them in a wash with an agitator. In any case, after a few washes, they have barely faded at all, but some. For example the Black was Jet black and its not quite as dark as it was, but I like it better now that its worn in a little. The Rust Red color name option here, which is available, was a personal color shade request and Im so pleased they even used the color name I recommended, and its so cool to finally have bought have this color since I personally requested it!!! All of these cloaks, cowls are 100% cotton as stated or described in size, color and fabric material, and are in every way just as described in the post or better. The fabic is a single layer rectangular woven cotton measuring 230cm L x 139cm W, that is, 90.5 inches Long x 54.75 inches Wide (9cm or 3.75 inches wider than stated, but I considered it a good thing) They are all nice and quite soft! They are thin, but not transparent (unless held up to a bright light source) but they have a durable feel to the fabric as one would image for use in the hot sun to block the direct sun UV rays, or to provide a lightweight barrier from the elements, providing some warmth to the face, neck or upper body to keep some heat in, block from wind and dust / sand. Though it is not intended to be a very warm cloak, it does add a layer of comfortable warmth, and can serve as a scarf and a hood. I like that because I do not like to wear hats in the winter, and obviously they are warmer if you double the layers when you fold it once length wise before wearing. These cowls / cloaks are raw cut (unhemmed) as stated and confirmed as 100% natural cotton! When tested with a lighter, it burns, embers and smokes when a cut off test thread is burned. It does not melt or bubble as synthetic fabric would. These things are a simple, rugged, extra long and extra wide cloak, scarf, or Shamhag, and they are every bit what it says it is. And will last a long time with proper care. I do plan to buy more colors, as they have now added several other colors in addition to Rust Red, that I personally suggested, the others were, Urban Grey, Forest Green, Desert Sand. So I will be showing my appreciation by getting those ones too pretty soon. I felt these color names lent well to the post apocalyptic look and vibe. Its really cool that they used them on their product! Thank you GraceArt for adding my color requests, and using those names, thats so cool, I really appreciate it!!

Low cost and nicely made. It's a single flat piece. It does look a lot like a very large version of a Navy Neckerchief scarf. So there are many possible applications, from a drape scarf to a waist scarf or wrap.

A lot of fabric. Good quality

Love these! they keep you warm and you can wear them everywhere. they look great even after washing, super lightweight, and the material feels nice. they have lasted a very long time, defenetly worth it.

Thos is a fabulous piece, be it for a costume or regular wear. Use mine as a light weight meditation wrap. Its large soft and comfortable!

The material is nice and the pins are cool, but this is baically a table cloth. No shape. I COULD HAVE DONE THAT MYSELF! I had higher hopes for what I paid for this piece of "costuming".

I bought two of these in desperation after we had two Halloween costumes go missing in transit/ not show up on time. My son wanted to be Nazgûl and those costumes were all quite expensive and all turned out to be scams. But because I had these in back up, we were able to assemble a cloak by draping and using safety pins that was quite dramatic yet lightweight and (combined with a black mask underneath over his face) looked quite creepy. It saved Halloween.

its big, soft for what it is and has a nice color, its almost see through for the most part but its not at the same time. its worth the buy. its thin but not flimsy and i dont feel like its going to rip easily.

Non l’ho ancora usata ma il materiale sembra ok!

Muy suave y cómoda tela.

Està bien és bastante larga y abriga bastante

It is great for both for regular use and while larping!

Phantastisches Tuch. Ich liebe es. Die Farbe ist klasse, es trägt sich gut und ist groß genug um sich auch Mal mit zudecken zu können. Ich bin happy! Die Fibel finde ich zu klein für das Tuch und die Nadel der Fibel zu grob für den Stoff. Die Nadelfibel habe ich auch nicht genutzt, weil sie mir zu schwach erscheint, aber es ging mir eh nicht um die Fibeln, sonder nur um das Tuch und das ist, wie gesagt, hervorragend!
