tabard
A tabard in the Middle Ages was a short, sleeveless garment worn over armor, typically featuring a heraldic design that displayed a knight's coat of arms. It served both practical and decorative purposes, allowing for easy identification on the battlefield and during tournaments. The tabard often extended to the waist or hips and was usually made of cloth, providing a layer of protection and warmth. Over time, it became associated with heraldry and the display of noble lineage.
They weren't a "jacket" like we know. Instead it was a cloak or cape.
Heraldry emerged in the twelfth century when feudalism began, when knights needed to be identified with family lines and feudal social postitions, as friend or foe. The symbol worn on a tabard over the armor made this distinction possible.
The Tabard was created in 1307.
The Tabard ended in 1873.
