Chainmail - Long Sleeved - Riveted

Epic Armoury's Chainmail shirt is a flexible mail armor shirt made from linked and riveted black steel rings. The mail covers the body from the shoulder to the waist, and has long sleeves protecting the arms to the wrists. Each ring interlocks with four other rings in a 4-in-1 design, and is also riveted to cope with additional stress. This shirt’s construction is built to last for a long time, but does add significant weight at 2.66 kg.

Wear this Chainmail by sliding it down over your head like a shirt, kept in place over your gambeson with a belt. Made of treated 1.6 mm gun-blued steel to prevent rust, this armor piece is built to withstand the abuse of a LARP or reenactment with regular leather and metal armor care.

• Available in Epic Dark and Steel Gray colors
• Available in sizes L and XL
