If you enjoy live action role playing as a medieval character, there’s no better way to complete your look than with a leather tankard from Hidebound.
But that’s not all. These drinking vessels serve a variety of other purposes as well.
Traditional designs
The design of these traditional drinking vessels dates back to the early medieval period when drinking vessels were made from leather.
The drinking vessels offered by Hidebound are made from real leather that is hardened and stitched by hand, prior to being lined with an epoxy resin for waterproofing. This resin is certified for use with alcohol.
The end product looks traditionally simple yet ornate, and feels comfortable to grip and hold. The jacks and tankards feature strong handles and sturdy bases. The base of the tankards is wider than the top for added stability, while the jacks feature more cylindrical designs.
Visually intriguing gifts
These time-tested designs combine traditional character with practicality, and would be great gifts for live-action role-players, historical event re-enactors, or people who just enjoy watching medieval fantasy tv shows.
The tankards and jacks are great to serve beer or ale in, and was how they were traditionally used. The leather goblets feature sturdy wooden bases and are perfect to serve wine, cider or spirits in.
