You know I'm going to buy one of these cloaks to use for modern day use. I love cloaks and personally feel like they should make a come back in the fashion

[@fellandfair]

Jose Cardenas we agree!

[@cubic5307]

Agreed.

[@fuckwit107]

Same, I'd love to just wander around Glagow while it's snowing in a big warm cloak.

[@simonpotrebka8838]

Oh no that monk over there is weeping, if only I had a cloak to comfort him!

[@fellandfair]

The Noise Marine poor fellow, his monastery just caught on fire!

I would love to see a video expanding on how you guys wear quivers with cloaks. Great series keep it up!!!

Great description on each cloak! I have the ranger linen cloak and it flows perfectly! Great quality.

[@lastofthehuntsmen1855]

love your videos!! I purchased one of your ranger cloaks a year ago and absolutely love it. Could you do a video that further goes into detail on weathering cloth/linen. Your weathering of leather video was really good, but one on weathering the rest of the outfit would be great!

[@fellandfair]

blake sandstrom that’s a great idea!

[@TheBeardedAxe]

10:00 That's such a simple yet very effective cloak idea. Nicely done sir 👍

[@johndefore3567]

Thank you so much, I've been having such a hard time finding a style. But it's for a Mandalorian armor kit lol but thank you for the video!

[@brdwy89]

Officially my favorite video of the series so far. Great job Zan!

[@fellandfair]

Guhnerketeer thanks! I tried to be a bit more demonstrative in this one!

[@brdwy89]

@@fellandfair I think you succeeded! Very smooth with the helmet there ;D

[@NewLegendPictures]

Awesome video Zan! As usual! I ended up redesigning my cloak from Weekend Warrior with a French Seam and a toggle to clasp it.

[@fellandfair]

Nice! Can’t wait to see it!

[@cass3026]

i’ve been looking for the perfect cape to get and i think i just found it

[@thewanderingswordsman5828]

Im loving this series Zan, I think a good series of videos would be kind of looking at fan costumes and giving them constructive criticism, I can send you a photo of mine today (probably your tonight).

[@islanderjen3038]

6:38 so...basically you made a medieval poncho lol. Great video by the way...I was researching medieval fashion recently so have been watching a lot of videos . Your video popped up as a recommendation.

[@fellandfair]

So glad you enjoy them! Thanks for watching!

[@bsferguson1]

Thank you

[@TheMigBoist]

Have you guys come across one of Burgschneider's cloaks before? I was wondering what your thoughts were on them, if you had seen/used them prior?

[@fellandfair]

Vortex1171 we got a few a couple of years ago. The throat ties ripped off in about 2days. They may have died that by now.

[@fellandfair]

[@bobu5213]

What is the difference between the full circle cloak and shaped shoulder cloak?

[@TheDrakanMaster124]

You should do a video on helmet orle

[@turinturambar1688]

You have inspired me to grow out my hair more

[@Ryker2608]

Do you guys make just a waxed canvas hood?

[@BlackMetalRebellion]

Late as heckins to this video, but I was wondering what you think kind of cloak martial artists or covert ops ninjas would've worn back in the day?

[@fellandfair]

Probably something easy to remove when they go into combat and lightweight like linen.

[@tarafassa111]

Just curious, you said all the linen cloaks, with the exception of the olive color are made with heavy weight linen. What is the olive made with? A lighter linen?

[@DumbAce]

2:46 is the olive cloak like super light then? I am confusion

[@illumardimago2307]

First timmer here just. getting. inspiration. ...

[@Wuunderboy]

What's the name of the cloak at 7:00 ? And can you add a small hood to it?

[@TheNinjaInConverse]

_comfort a weeping monk_

[@drewslater6790]

Hi! I'm looking at purchasing one of the cloaks, I'm narrowing it down between the Ranger linen or Wool, you briefly mention something about the Olive Linen being a different material or having a different feel to it. Can you explain, I can't find anything on it on the website!

[@fellandfair]

Hi! The Olive is a medium weight linen (slightly lighter than the heavyweight). which means it is cooler and flows a bit more! so it is optimal for the summer!

[@drewslater6790]

@@fellandfair perfect! Thank you!

[@annebreece919]

Hello, I am creating a cosplay for Harrowhark the ninth. How many yards would you suggest of fabric to make the yellow style cloak? Thanks!

[@annebreece919]

The knight's cape I mean

[@michaelb7862]

Anyone have recommendations on the best place to get medieval clothing (1150-1335AD) for men (English), women (Iberian) and children that also doesn't look out of place in the modern world? I was thinking that footwear like the following could suit (whilst not necessarily being perfect) Men: Sandals, Espadrilles, Ropes Sandals, Empire Sandals, Leather Thongs, Menorcan Sandals, Gladiator Sandals, Clogs, Monk Strap, Moccasins, Woven Sandals, Suede Loafer, Chukka Boots, Chelsea boots, Plimsolls, Cuban Heel Chelsea Boots, Chukka Desert Boot, Driving Shoes, Women: Strappy Tie-up Sandals, Knotted Suede Toe Post Sandal, Cross Strap flat sandals, Raffia double strap slide sandals, woven leather tie leg sandal, Mules, Clogs, Over the Knee Boots, Ballet Flats, Lace Up Knee High Boots, Stirrup Boots, Slouch Boot, Desert Lace Up Shoes, Cuban heel western Chelsea boot with buckle detail. Likewise, Quilted Clothing (like Quilted Sweatshirt, Quilted Puffer Coat, Quilted Coat, Quilted Tracksuit Pants, Quilted Tracksuit Top, Quilted Jumper) could suffice for Civilian Gambeson. I’m also thinking that Tunics (Knee, Cocktail, Midi or Maxi Length), Leggings, Tights, Long Sleeved V Neck Shirt, Tank Top, Henley Shirt, Track Pants, Hoodie, T-Shirt with Notch Neck, Driving Gloves, Suede Gloves, Leather Gloves could be used. Correct me if I’m wrong.

I'm looking for one to keep me warm in the winter, would the wool ranger be a good choice? how long is it?

[@fellandfair]

Yes teh wool ranger is a great option. Also our new Outcast Cloak is great as well.

[@ShadamAran]

@@fellandfair What's the difference?

[@fellandfair]

Thr Ranger Cloak is longer and more like the ones in LotR while the Outcast is more of an open-front poncho.

@@fellandfair thank you! I went with the ranger, my friends may laugh at me for wearing a cloak but I will laugh at them for being cold!

[@100oracle]

What ounce canvas do you use for your waxed canvas cloaks?

[@fellandfair]

It is 8.5oz

[@100oracle]

They really are beautiful, i wish i could afford your wares. Im going to try to make a poor mans cloak out of 10 ounce canvas drop cloth from hardware store and wax it. Researching cloaks is how i discovered you and your etsy store. You think it will work?

[@fellandfair]

@@100oracle that may be hard to sew and once it does soak through it would be heavy. But it is possible! Let us know how it goes!
