Is this cloak warm enough for cold weather?

It is a lightweight linen layer, so it suits mild to warm days and layering. For cold or wet events, a wool cloak is the warmer choice.

Will it keep me dry in rain?

It handles wind and light drizzle, but linen absorbs water. In steady rain it will soak through.

It works over a tunic and trousers for ranger or Viking kits, and over period dress for Faire or reenactment wear.

Two ties at the front, each about 45 cm long, hold it closed. There are no buttons or clasps.

Wash linen gently and expect wrinkles. Iron or steam it before an event to restore the drape.

The hood is about 34 cm deep and roomy, but it is cut for the head, not for helmets.
