Compass and Thunder, Woven in Cotton
The Vegvisir, or wayfinder, guided Vikings through storms as recounted in Iceland’s Huld Manuscript, while Thor’s hammer Mjölnir symbolized divine protection and strength, amulets of which have been unearthed from Sweden to Iceland. This tee unites both symbols, screen-printed on 100% breathable cotton using techniques inspired by Viking-age artisans who etched runes into weapons and talismans. The fabric’s durability mirrors váðmál (Viking wool), its softness refined for modern wearers who seek the resilience of Odin’s wanderers and Thor’s thunderous resolve.
Features
- Dual Norse Symbols: Fade-resistant Vegvisir and Mjölnir prints channel guidance and protection.
- Breathable 100% Cotton: Lightweight fabric for summer raids, gym quests, or urban adventures.
- Valkyrie-Approved Fit: Regular-cut silhouette with short sleeves (1.57–6.3 in / 4–16 cm).
- True-to-Size Craftsmanship: Double-stitched seams endure like birchbark bindings on a longship.
- Ragnarök-Ready Design: Pre-shrunk fabric resists warping, aging like a well-loved seax sheath.

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.
