The core design draws from Haithabu's extensive textile archaeology (8th-11th century), particularly fragments 72 A & B, which provided crucial evidence of the distinctive curved armhole construction unique to this settlement. These fragments, along with pieces 64 & 65, revealed detailed information about seam techniques and typical stitch lengths of 3-5mm used in Viking Age garments.
The Haithabu finds show consistent use of specific hand-stitching techniques, documented in fragments 64 & 65, which demonstrate the backstitch for main seams and whipstitch for edge finishing - techniques we faithfully reproduce in each garment. The harbor settlement finds S14 & S15 provide clear evidence of gore placement methods, while fragments 69 & 70 show characteristic sleeve attachment techniques of the period.
This primary research is complemented by textile finds from other significant Norse settlements, offering additional context for our reconstruction:
• Earlier context: Thorsberg finds (4th century)
• Contemporary evidence: Birka textile fragments (793-972 CE)
• Later developments: Kragelund (11/12th century), Bocksten (14th century)
Contemporary written sources, including Ibn Fadlan's detailed observations of Norse clothing from 921 CE, provide additional historical context for Viking Age clothing construction methods.
• Historical reenactors seeking documented authenticity
• Museum demonstrations and educational displays
• Living history events and presentations
• Academic research and historical interpretation
• Educational institutions and heritage centers
• Hand-sewn using techniques documented in Haithabu fragments 64 & 65
• Authentic curved armhole construction based on fragments 72 A & B

A Piece of Living History
FROM HAITHABU'S HARBOR TO YOUR WARDROBE
Historical Legacy
Haithabu (Hedeby), the bustling crossroads of the Viking world (8th-11th century), has provided us with exceptional insights into Norse clothing construction. Our tunic design draws directly from the settlement's remarkable textile finds, particularly fragments 72 A & B, which showcase the distinctive curved armhole construction unique to this trading center. These invaluable fragments, along with pieces 64 & 65, reveal not just garment construction methods, but the practical ingenuity of Viking Age craftspeople.
Authentic Craftsmanship
Each tunic is entirely hand-sewn using techniques documented in Haithabu's textile remains. From the characteristic stitching patterns preserved in fragments 64 & 65 to the gore placement evidenced in harbor finds S14 & S15, every element reflects the archaeological record. We use only natural materials, matching those found in Haithabu's textile fragments, ensuring your garment is as authentic as it is functional.
Documented Techniques from 8th-11th Century Textile Finds
VIKING AGE CONSTRUCTION METHODS ✨ Archaeological Evidence in Every Stitch
Body Construction: The Haithabu Innovation
While Birka shows simpler rectangular construction, Haithabu's extensive textile collection reveals sophisticated tailoring evolution. Fragments 72 A & B showcase the distinctive curved armhole design, while fragments 11 & 12 demonstrate advanced panel-joining techniques. Settlement finds 82 A-D provide evidence of precise fabric cutting methods that maximized the use of valuable handwoven textiles.
Historical Construction Details:
🧵 Stitching Techniques
• Hand-sewn seams documented in fragments 64 & 65, showing seams with 3-5mm running stitches, 4-6mm backstitches, and 8-10mm seam allowances
• Curved armhole construction preserved in fragments 72 A & B, featuring 2-3mm reinforcement stitching along the distinctive curve
• Sleeve attachment methods evidenced in fragments 69 & 70, demonstrating 4mm even stitch spacing throughout
• Edge finishing techniques documented in fragments 48 & 49, showing precise 2mm whipstitches
• Panel joining methods from harbor settlement finds 91 & 92, revealing consistent 4-5mm stitch length
📏 Gore & Panel Construction
Evidence from Haithabu's harbor settlement guides our work:
• Gore placement techniques preserved in fragments S14 & S15, showing precise 45-50 degree angles
• Panel alignment methods documented in fragments 82 A-D, demonstrating widths of 45-50cm
• Hem construction details from harbor finds 101 & 102, featuring 12-15mm depth
