Nothemd

A distressed shirt is a shirt which, according to popular belief, has to be woven, woven and sewn under magical ceremonies by two girls who still have to be a virgin (or have not yet finished the seventh year). Partially, the emergency shirt had to be manufactured in the night from the 24th to the 25th of December, thus Christnacht. Two human heads are fastened to the chest of the shirt, the right of which bears a long beard and a helmet, and which is depicted on the left with a crown as the devil carries it. Crosses are also added to the shirt on both sides. It has sleeves and is approximately half the length of the man who is to wear it.

In the Thirty Years' War, such shirts were worn by the soldiers under their clothes, hoping that they would be protected from bullets and sword blows, making the shirt "firm" and invulnerable. Therefore, when the men were threatened by a threat to life and limb, the name of the "emergency" emblem was derived. Such shirts were also created by women who gave birth to a light and safe birth.
