Description
This chainmail habergeon, available in Medium, Large, and Extra Large, is forged from mild steel rings arranged in a 10/16 butted pattern. The full sleeves extend protection beyond the torso to shield the arms, shoulders, chest, and back, a design common among medieval foot soldiers and knights seeking mobility alongside defense. The interlinked silvered rings catch the light, reflecting a traditional style that has been favored for centuries in European armor. Crafted to endure the rigors of combat or the demands of reenactment, this habergeon balances weight and flexibility, allowing the wearer to move with relative ease while remaining guarded against cuts and thrusts.
