Leg warmers

Two rectangular gaiters/leg warmers, made from light-coloured cotton cotton fabric and elm bast fabric. The upper half of the elm bast fabric features appliqués appliqués made of blue cotton fabric with embroidered ornaments. The lower half is made of of white cotton fabric is divided into squares with sewn-through threads. The attached cords made of cotton fabric were used to lace the leg warmers to the calf. Due to the adverse weather conditions, clothing had to be suitable for protecting against the cold and wet. Gaiters/leg warmers covered the transition from shoes to trousers.
