From the 1360's until about 1395 men's and women's houppelandes were both full length garments.  After 1395 men's houppelandes ranged from full length to above the hip.  The mid thigh length (short) length was common with the working class.

We have made houppelandes in many lengths, but by far our best selling is the men's short houppelande.  We make two major versions, either with dagged sleeves and hems, or with cape sleeves.  Short houppelande are usually worn with Hose.  Although the dagged sleeve version can be worn alone, the cape sleeve ones are always worn over a shirt.

The fabrics we use range from cottons to velvets.  For general wear we usually use cottons, linens and wool, for court garb we also use silks, satins and velvet.   We've also embellished them with embroidery and heraldic stamps.
