Compass and Thunder, Woven in Cotton
The Vegvisir, or wayfinder, guided Vikings through storms as chronicled in Iceland’s Huld Manuscript, while Mjölnir, Thor’s hammer, symbolized divine protection—a talisman unearthed in Viking graves from Birka to Reykjavík. This tee unites both icons, their designs screen-printed on 100% breathable cotton using techniques refined by modern smíðir (craftsmen). The fabric’s durability rivals váðmál (Viking wool), softened for wearers who seek the resilience of Odin’s navigators and the thunderous might of Asgard’s guardian.

Fit & Sizing
Available in women’s sizes S–XXL. At Vikheim, we strive for consistency in every piece. However, due to cotton’s natural drape and artisanal crafting, slight variations (1–3 cm) may occur—proof of handcrafted authenticity.
Care Instructions
Wash in cold fjord waters (machine cold, gentle cycle); avoid jötunn bleach. Tumble dry low—no need to summon Surtr’s flames. Iron inside-out to preserve the symbols’ sacred geometry.
