  • A blouse of cloth or skin fastened by a leather belt round the waist

  • An overcoat or mantle of thick woollen material, which fell from his shoulders to half-way down his legs

  • Shoes or large boots

  • Short woollen trousers,

  • From his belt there hung a sheath for his knife

  • Medieval serfs generally went bareheaded, but in cold weather or in rain he wore a woollen hat

  • Gloves were only worn for their practical clothing value and were padded for use in tasks such as hedging
