March 10th 2023

Added a chapter on the Mammen find. Furthermore, I did a slight rewrite of the chapter on ökulbrækr to take into account the evidence from Mammen. Removed broken links and replaced some of my photos of the Thorsberg find with new photos taken by me in 2022.

February 17th 2022

Minor corrections in the text. Added link to high resolution photographs of the Skjoldehamn find by Løvlid.

March 6th 2018

Removed all interpretation of hose finds, as they have been given their own article, added a table of contents, and rewrote the text on Birka 905, and the introductions to the Haithabu and Skjoldehamn material.

March 2nd 2014

Added information about the interpretation of the hose finds, and rewrote the paragraphs regarding grave 905 in light of the information from Inga Hägg's report of the Birka finds.

February 4th 2014

Significant rewrite of the entire article in order to do a more rigorous separation of the find data and the interpretations, and make it clearer just how uncertain the interpretations of the different brækr (trousers/breeches) are. Added information about hose and stocking finds and my interpretation of the Skjoldehamn brók.
