This aluminium chainmail shirt is made with 10 mm round rings made from 16-gauge aluminium, with a combination of dome-riveted rings with alternating solid flat rings. This chainmail hauberk has a classic medieval look with lightweight and comfortable wear.

Unlike traditional steel mail, aluminium chainmail has no historical medieval origin, as aluminium was not widely available before the modern era. Its use in chainmail emerged in the 20th century revival of chainmail (Renaissance), where makers came up with materials better for long wear, display, and performances . Today, aluminium mail is valued for its modern practicality rather than battlefield function.

The major advantage of aluminium chainmail is its lightweight construction, weighing roughly one-third of comparable steel armor. This majorly decreases fatigue, making it ideal for theatre, stage use , film productions, cosplay, LARP, and historical reenactments where visual look matters more than resistance. Additionally, aluminium is naturally rust-resistant and corrosion-proof, so it is well suited for humid climates and outdoor events with minimal maintenance.

This riveted chainmail hauberk gives a bright, natural silvery finish that resembles steel but is easier to wear for long time. As an aluminium chainmail hauberk, it is made for non-combat and light-duty use, prioritizing comfort, mobility, and appearance.

Note: This aluminium chainmail shirt is excellent for costuming and display, it gives less impact, piercing protection than steel mail and is not intended for heavy combat or live steel fighting.
