Capes

Capes

Few garments are as iconic and versatile as the cape. Flowing and dramatic, it has been a symbol of power, mystery, and adventure for centuries. Whether draped across the shoulders of a medieval knight, worn by a noble in the court, or billowing behind a sorcerer casting spells, capes evoke stories of bravery, elegance, and intrigue.

At Epic Armoury, we craft capes that are more than just clothing—they’re tools for storytelling. Designed to blend practicality with stunning aesthetics, our capes allow you to immerse yourself fully in your character. Whether you’re leading the charge in a LARP battle, commanding attention at a Renaissance fair, or putting the finishing touch on your cosplay, our capes are built to inspire and endure.

 


What Makes Capes Unique?

Capes are not just garments—they are an extension of your character’s personality. Their dramatic lines and flowing fabric create a sense of motion and presence that no other piece of clothing can achieve. Whether concealing secrets or making a bold statement, capes bridge the gap between function and flair.

Capes in Action: Where Function Meets Storytelling

  • Battle-Ready for LARP Combat: Shield yourself from the elements or enhance your heroic charge with a cape that adds authenticity and flair to LARP scenarios.

  • Striking Cosplay Statement: Transform your costume with a cape that completes the look, from majestic wizards to shadowy rogues.

  • Interactive Roleplay at Renaissance Fairs: Perfect for period-accurate outfits, capes lend depth to your character while catching the eyes of fairgoers.

 


Capes in History and Fantasy

Capes have played a significant role throughout history. In medieval Europe, they were essential outerwear, keeping travelers warm and protecting knights during long campaigns. Nobles adorned themselves with finely crafted cloaks to signify wealth and status, while pilgrims and wanderers relied on durable cloaks to shield them from the elements.

In fantasy, capes are a storyteller’s dream. They add gravitas to heroic knights, shroud sorcerers in mystery, and give rogues a means of concealment. From epic battles to secretive missions, capes are the visual shorthand for adventure, power, and drama, making them a staple in every great story.

How to Care for Your Cape

Proper care ensures your cape stays adventure-ready for years to come. Follow these simple tips:

  • Cleaning: Spot-clean small stains or dry-clean wool and velvet capes to maintain their quality. Avoid machine washing, which can damage delicate fabrics.

  • Storage: Hang your cape on a sturdy hanger to maintain its shape. Use a garment bag for long-term storage, keeping it safe from dust and moisture.

  • Check Clasps and Stitching: Regularly inspect clasps and seams to ensure they remain secure. Promptly repair any loose stitching to extend the life of your cape.

With these care tips, your cape will remain as stunning and functional as the day you first wore it.

 


Tips for Choosing the Perfect Cape

Selecting the right cape is about balancing style, practicality, and character immersion. Consider these tips:

  • Fabric Matters: Choose wool for durability and warmth, velvet for elegance, or lightweight fabrics for agility and stealth.

  • Length and Mobility: Longer capes add drama but may restrict movement. Shorter capes are practical for active roles like scouts or rogues.

  • Character Story: Match your cape to your character’s role—hooded cloaks for mystery, embroidered mantles for nobility, or simple woolen cloaks for travelers.
