Medieval Tunics, Shirts, Surcoats & Tabards for Men

In the Middle Ages, clothing played an important role in showing social status and membership of a particular social class. Tunics, shirts, surcoats or tabards were central components of men’s wardrobes.

Medieval Tunics

The tunic (Latin: tunica) was the basic overgarment of medieval gentlemen. It usually reached from the shoulders to the knees or thighs. The material, cut and decoration varied depending on the wearer’s status and wealth:

  • Simple peasant and artisan tunics were usually made of woolen fabric or linen and kept relatively simple.
  • For nobles and the wealthy, tunics became increasingly elaborate. They were made from finer fabrics such as silk or trimmed with velvet and were often decorated with embroidery, braids or fur trimmings.
  • For special occasions such as festivals or ceremonies, aristocrats wore splendid ceremonial garments with rich decorations.

Medieval Shirts

The chemise (Latin: camisia) was the basic undergarment worn directly on the skin. It usually reached down to the thighs and had wide, sometimes even floor-length sleeves. Poorer men wore simple, linen-like shirts, while the shirts of noblemen were made of finer cotton or linen fabrics.

A men’s medieval shirt was often paired with other garments, such as tunics or surcoats, to create layered outfits that balanced practicality and elegance.

Medieval Surcoats or Tabards

In medieval fashion, surcoats were traditionally sleeveless, floor-length robes worn over a tunic, often adorned with heraldic symbols to signify nobility or allegiance. Tabards, on the other hand, were shorter, functional garments commonly used by heralds or soldiers.

At Burgschneider, the term surcoat captures the spirit of medieval overgarments in all their versatility. From long, flowing designs inspired by knightly attire to shorter, more practical styles, our surcoats bridge historical inspiration with modern functionality. This flexible approach allows wearers to choose the perfect piece for historical reenactments, cosplay, or everyday medieval-inspired fashion.

Men's Medieval Shirts, Tunics and Surcoats in Context

Each garment, whether a men’s medieval shirt, a men’s medieval tunic, a surcoat, or a tabard, played a vital role in defining a man’s appearance and identity during the Middle Ages. Together, they created outfits that were both practical and symbolic, reflecting the values and culture of the time.
