The Welsh Viking | Sexy Viking Leg Wraps: A Quick Guide @TheWelshViking | Uploaded April 2021 | Updated October 2024, 9 hours ago.
Winingas! Puttees! Leg wraps! Whatever you call them, the Vikings, Saxons, Carolingians and Romans (and 2021 lockdown Jimmy) loved them. They keep your legs warm when you run, they stop bugs biting you when you camp, and they're super for ankle support.

But what evidence do we have for these fun Viking bandages? How did they keep them up? Who wore them? Join me for a sort of deep dive into the wonderful world of winingas!

And obviously I'll teach you a little Cymraeg for good measure.
