Simple Bollock Pouch 14th-16thC

Simple bollock pouch to carry the medieval essentials that even the lowest people in society would have and this would suit lower social classes over a large period.

Medieval people didn’t have pockets in their clothing so they wore belt pouches often called at the time pockets and used them to carry all their daily essentials. Whether you are a living history purist or you like to carry your car keys, mobile phone and some loose change, these will suit.

Based a composite of examples from the amazing book ‘Purses in Pieces’ by Olaf Goubitz. 

Pouch height excluding belt loops 15cm/6 inches

Pouch width  21cm/8.5 inches

Suits belt width up to 3cm/1.25 inches
