Authentic bonnet made of wool & cotton

To preserve the shape and material properties of the "Authentic Wool & Cotton Bonnet" in the long term, gentle hand washing at a maximum of 30 degrees Celsius is recommended. Use a mild wool detergent and avoid fabric softener, rubbing, or wringing. After washing, the bonnet should not be hung up, but carefully rolled in a towel to absorb excess water and then air-dried flat. Since wool has natural self-cleaning properties, frequent airing in fresh air is often sufficient to remove odors and protect the fibers.

While ideal for light headgear, padding is generally recommended for heavier head protection in staged combat.

The "Authentic Wool & Cotton Cob" primarily covers the High and Late Middle Ages. While it originally served as an under-cob for knights beneath their chainmail or helmet, from the 12th century onwards it developed into a universal head covering worn by almost all social classes – from the simple peasant and craftsman to the nobleman.
