The Anglo-Saxon world — its language, its laws, its aristocracy — was dismantled within a generation. This sweatshirt takes that moment and turns it into a statement: bold knotwork design, sharp type, and a protest rooted in a thousand years of history. Not about modern politics. About the original invasion. Wear it at reenactments, history meetups, or anywhere you want your heritage to speak for itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnisex adult fit — true to size across S–2XL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e50\/50 cotton-poly blend, 8.0 oz\/yd² — warm, durable, and comfortable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTubular knit with no side seams for a smooth silhouette\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRibbed knit collar and double-needle stitching throughout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOEKO-TEX certified — ethically sourced US cotton, made in Nicaragua\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable in 12 colours: Charcoal, Dark Heather, Heliconia, Irish Green, Light Blue, Light Pink, Military Green, Red, Royal, Sand, Sport Grey, White\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in Nicaragua\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSize guide\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"min-width: 360px;\" id=\"size-guide\"\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"color: #000000; font-weight: 500; text-align: left; font-size: 15px; padding: 10px;\"\u003eS\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"color: #000000; font-weight: 500; text-align: left; font-size: 15px; padding: 10px;\"\u003eM\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"color: #000000; font-weight: 500; text-align: left; font-size: 15px; padding: 10px;\"\u003eL\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"color: #000000; font-weight: 500; text-align: left; font-size: 15px; padding: 10px;\"\u003eXL\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"color: #000000; font-weight: 500; text-align: left; font-size: 15px; padding: 10px;\"\u003e2XL\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; color: #525252; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid #ededed;\"\u003eWidth, in\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; color: #525252; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid #ededed;\"\u003e20.00\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; color: #525252; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid #ededed;\"\u003e22.01\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; color: #525252; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid #ededed;\"\u003e24.00\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; color: #525252; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid #ededed;\"\u003e26.00\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; color: #525252; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid #ededed;\"\u003e28.00\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; color: #525252; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid #ededed;\"\u003eLength, in\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; color: #525252; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid #ededed;\"\u003e27.00\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; color: #525252; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid #ededed;\"\u003e28.00\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; color: #525252; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid #ededed;\"\u003e29.00\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; color: #525252; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid #ededed;\"\u003e30.00\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; color: #525252; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid #ededed;\"\u003e31.00\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; color: #525252; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid #ededed;\"\u003eSleeve length (from centre back), in\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; color: #525252; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid #ededed;\"\u003e33.50\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; color: #525252; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid #ededed;\"\u003e34.50\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; color: #525252; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid #ededed;\"\u003e35.50\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; color: #525252; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid #ededed;\"\u003e36.50\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; color: #525252; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid #ededed;\"\u003e37.50\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCare instructions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMachine wash cold (max 30°C \/ 90°F)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNon-chlorine bleach as needed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTumble dry low heat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDo not dry clean\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the Norman Conquest?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn 1066, Duke William of Normandy invaded England, defeated King Harold II at the Battle of Hastings, and replaced the Anglo-Saxon ruling class with Norman French nobility.
