We have a very vivid vision of what a pirate looks like. He wears a headscarf and a tricornered hat. An eyepatch, earrings, a coat, …
I have no idea why but every time you mention the earings not being part of the pirate ‘dress code’ I just imagine a pirate captain getting increasingly vexed by a new sailor refusing to comply with the dress code by not getting an earing. Like the guy is a good sailor, follows orders, gets along with the crew, and the captain really values his contribution but just gets hung up on this one thing. I imagine the captain letting it slide when they are just sailing around but me makes him go below deck whenever they go to raid a ship because he would make his crew look unprofessional. It’s so ridiculous but i think about it every time you shoot down the idea of pirates actually having a dress code 😂
Sailors absolutely wore underwear, you can find “drawers” (a term still used in the military to denote underpants) in lists of clothing available in the slops contracts. Now did some people gird their shirts in lieu of underwear? Almost certainly, but this pervasive misconception that underwear just up and disappears between the end of the renaissance and the modern era is patently untrue.
Interesting article as always, another small peek into a age gone by. The pop-culture did have few things right and wrong about what pirates wore back in the days, as a artist its diffcult to find proper references of what privateers/seamen wore so this sort of article is very much helpful and appreciated.
Good content. I myself like many themes of early modern 1500-1800s history and pirates are one of my favourite subjects. A couple of comments: The hat you said was made out of straw is actually probably, as far as i have understood, a tan coloured knitted woollen cap or a Monmouth cap with a brim. This is a part of the sailor clothes of Peter the Great that he brought from holland and should be in the Hermitage museum. The tricorn is a modern term for a “cocked hat, a brimmed hat folded three sides. Such hats came in many forms since around 1660s and by the early years of 1700s three sided cocked hat was the most fashionable. Various earlier brim hats with brims turned upwards, some in one side or several, can be seen e.g. in the images of French buccaneers you mentioned. Tricorns were just one of many forms of these hats, one that became a 18th century fashion. Yet, the neat clear tricorn hats were not indeed really common among ordinary sailors yet in the golden age of piracy. They were, however, used by sea officers, naval officers at least, if not some of the pirate officers as well. (Royal Navy Lt. Maynard wears a tricorn in a modern reconstruction illustration of Pirate: The Golden Age by Angus Konstam, David Rickman in page 47.) As a small example of a nice period image of a tricorn hat on a sea officer, French circa 1700 commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Officier_de_marine_francais_dessin_allegorique_vers_1700.jpg Some references to check out, if you do not already know: A good reference book for living history details, even while it may be for younger audience as well.
Wow so their are almost similar to the Malay Sailors and Malay Pirates clothing. Malay Sailors back in 16th century would wear a pants that the length is right below the knee or at calves level and they would be bare footed when they’re on the ship, but on land they would wear a traditional Flip flops/Sandals called Capal Melayu and wear the Malay traditional pants called Seluar Pesak which is a baggy pants that stop at above ankles. They would wear “Kain Samping” that look like a kilts or skirts for men and women, mostly have checkers pattern made from cotton. Usually they would wear a malay traditional round neck shirts called Baju Teluk Belanga, sometimes a sleeveless versions of it, but during a hot day they would go shirtless. They would use a rectangular cloth to make many types of traditional Malay headwears, some would wrap it around their head to make a Malay turbans called “Semutar” in many styles, some fold it into triangular shape and wear it similarly like the pirate head wraps, and some would wear a Malay traditional headwear called Tanjak. They would wear a belt sash and wear a brass metal that shaped like an eye called Pending Tembaga on their belts. And some, instead of a handkerchief, they would wear a shoulder sash that thay can use to climb poles faster or use it to defend themselves from a sharp weapons. They would brought with them a Keris, a sword or two, pistols called “Terakol”, a rifle called “Istinggar”, a spear, and much more. For jewelry, Malay peoples love rings.
9:30 anyone with long hair knows that in windy, hot, or wet weather, removing the hair from the face is preferable! tying it back didn’t always work either, especially if you had some sort of fringe or shorter hair near the face. simply covering it with a cloth is a lot of relief, it makes practical sense
I own a few tricorn hats and not once had I had a problem with upward visibility, even if I really push ’em down all I can see just is a bit of the tip. I’m not discrediting the fact that they might have been wearing them backwards mind you, just that I find it a bit odd, also because when I tried to wear them backwards and looking up, I saw 2 tips on the side instead of a small dip in the centre.
Sailors wore grease in their hair to keep out lice and make it easier to keep out of their faces. The neckerchief served multiple functions. It kept the back of the neck out of the sun, it could be used to wipe away sweat. It also kept the grease from one’s hair off of a uniform (in the case of military sailors in later years)
I’ve heard because of the condition of the deck and rigging on some of these ships combined with occasional inebriation that more than a few pirates fell into the water. The bright colored adornments aided in spotting you especially when worn on the head, neck and shoulders as you treaded water. They also helped identify you individually at a quick glance from a distant like up in the rigging etc. The various fabrics and patterns could be pillaged from other ships, taken as souvenirs and were often traded with shipmates or purchased at port. The more unique the higher the price. Plus you kinda wore whatever you could find at times.
I’m curious to know what the pirate sense of humor was like during the golden age…..I’m sure it was “colorful” with possibly a lot of bantering amongst mates to break the boredom and monotony of being out to sea from long periods of time …I wonder if there were codes on discrimination or perhaps your gonna catch hell of your a young greenhorn! Love this website …subscribed! ☠️🤔
Very clever putting the sound of seas and rigging, creaking wood… underneath your voice, I’m wearing headphones and was trying to figure out if it was pouring on my roof, or if i was hearing my breathing, 😂 then I figured it out, please continue with this in your articles, it’s almost subliminal. I’m hoping I’m not going coocoo and hearing things, lmao 😂my husband is snoring so loud I turned you up.
As a (modern day pirate;) i can assure, that efficiency, effectiveness and economy are, and have been the stalwarts of decision making for (men of character;) in their choice of clothes. One must absolutely (gird up the loin’s) before battle or hard labor, that’s a necessity since time immemorial for Men. Even the savages used breechcloth to protect their (priva-teers;)
I highly doubt many sailors voluntarily went around on a wooden ship barefoot. Good way to destroy your feet with splinters and whatnot. If they were in between a pair of shoes, they’d no doubt try to haggle for some or request some from the captain or quartermaster the next time they raided a ship. If nothing else they’d probably at least wrap some cloth around their feet
I’ve never thought the naval slops contract clothing had Anything to do with pyrates. Pyrates often seem to have been hard up for clothing? In their line of work, with lots of sun and salt water, I would think their clothing would look pretty bad pretty quickly ann reed and mary bonny….with scarves on their heads….but we’re told they were pretending to be men? so maybe that’s male sailor clothing? You mention various situations and the clothing worn for those situations….”at sea” “on land”, maybe that’s a way to approach pyrate clothing?…. by the job being done and where they are at what time of year(off the coast of N America in winter is a far cry from the Caribbean in summer)….at sea, in combat at sea, on land for recreation, on land for combat….? I think it’s safe to lose shoes, socks, big belts and buckles, tri corner hats (most of the time) scarves seem to be ok if they’re not these HUGE things you see depicted. (some of those caps have to be knitted but Anybody can cut a piece of cloth and tie it around their head….a headscarf Has to be the easiest most low tech way of keeping your hair and sweat out of your face and it won’t blow off easily) I love how Johnson’s book is unreliable even when archeology backs it up lol It’s interesting in the case of the pyrate captains taking coats and the Quartermasters stopping them….that show’s the Quartermasters unusual authority of their office….even over the captain at times I’m sure glad pop culture changed the look of the pyrates because they are some of the ugliest dressed people at any time Ever lol.
I remember reading in my youth (60+ years ago) that until the late 1700s many ordinary seamen wore linen Kilts/Kirtles or Cotehardies. (illustration 17.IV, Swords & Blades of the American Revolution by George C. Neumann). Apparently the British term “Tar” for a Sailor came from their tarred cue/queue/ braid/plait/pigtail. Where is your evidence that seamen did NOT wear earrings? Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence ! Certainly from portraiture, men wearing earrings were popular in France and England in the 1600s.
