Questions about the product Lined mixed-race tabard with lion, red and black

What material is the lined, mixed-color tabard with lion crest made of, and how should it best be cared for to prevent the contrasting colors from bleeding?

The lined, mixed-color tabard is made of 100% cotton. To prevent the contrasting colors from bleeding and to ensure optimal care of the garment, it should be machine washed on a gentle cycle at a maximum temperature of 30°C to 40°C and is not suitable for tumble drying.

What specific meaning does the lion coat of arms on this tabard have in the historical context of the Mi-Parti style, and for which medieval reenactments or role-playing games is this design particularly suitable?

The lion on this tabard, as the "king of beasts," symbolizes courage and royalty. Within the historical context of the mi-parti style, a color-based division of clothing from the 11th to the 16th centuries, the design served to clearly indicate the wearer's affiliation and status on the battlefield or at tournaments. This tabard is particularly suitable for portraying knights, noblemen, or commanders at medieval festivals, reenactments of the High and Late Middle Ages, and live-action role-playing (LARP).

What is the significance of the two-tone mi-parti design, especially in relation to the heraldic affiliation with a lord or city, and how does this tabard differ visually from the models of the religious orders of knighthood?

The mi-parti design, with its vertical two-tone pattern, signaled heraldic affiliation to a lord, city, or specific knightly house by directly displaying its heraldic colors on the garment. In contrast, the designs of religious orders of knighthood, such as the Templars, Hospitallers, or Teutonic Knights, are usually characterized by monochromatic fabrics with a contrasting order cross on the chest, rather than sharing the colors of the garment itself.

What practical design features, such as cut and slits, does this calf-length tabard offer for freedom of movement during medieval activities or in the heat of battle?

This calf-length tabard has a straight cut and features side slits that extend to the waist. These design elements ensure the necessary freedom of movement, allowing you to move freely during both medieval activities and in the heat of battle.
