Even at a young age, you are training to become a knight. As a squire you are expected to dress the part, and so you wear your Bastian Tunic with pride.

Today you are stuck helping others with their armour, fetching swords and holding the reins of your master’s horse. This will not last forever, however. One day you hope to be one of the greatest fighters in the land.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Dark Red Tunic Bastian is a short-sleeved cotton tunic designed for children. Reaching from the shoulders to the mid-thighs, this tunic features practical details that make it easier and comfortable to wear, including a notch along the neckline and the short split seam along the sides. Made from red dyed cotton and a purple bottom hem, this tunic is a versatile item that can be a costume all by itself--or work as a base layer in a more complicated design. Either way, this neutral cut tunic is an essential and long-lasting piece for your child’s wardrobe.

Available in Dark Red and Epic Black; and in sizes 6-8 Years, 8-10 Years, and X-Small.
