Templar Cape

"Not to us, O Lord, not to us but to your name be the glory." Psalm 115 was the motto of the Templar Knights, an order that was established in the wake of the first Crusade. Combining the ideals of noble knights and religious monks was as much of a historical innovation as the Crusades themselves were.

The battling Christians were highly visible on account of their white garb, which bore a contrasting red cross pattee. Our reproduction of the long, full white cape they wore is historically accurate. It is made of two layers of 100 percent cotton: a white, textured outer layer lined in the same red as the large cross at the left front. This Templar Knights cape fastens at the throat with sturdy ties and measures almost 150 cm from the shoulder seam down.

Material: 100% Cotton
