This half hauberk is crafted from 6 mm 18-gauge riveted flat rings, alternated with solid rings for exceptional density and strength. The smaller Roman Mail 6 mm rings provide superior resistance against cuts and thrusts, closely mirroring historical mail used by late medieval soldiers.

The denser weave not only increases protection but also gives this hauberk a refined, authentic look, ideal for accurate reenactments, film productions, or SCA training.

Key Highlights:

6 mm dense weave offers superior defense against piercing and thrusts.
Historically accurate for late medieval armor when smaller rings were preferred.
Compact and refined appearance for a tight, realistic drape.

Uses:

Reenactments: Essential for completing historically accurate armor kits.
Stage & Film: Adds realism and depth to knight or warrior costumes.
LARP: Lighter than a full hauberk yet functional and durable.
Combat Training & SCA: Sturdy riveted construction for safe, realistic wear.

Care Instructions:

Wipe with a dry cloth after each use.
Lightly oil rings to prevent rust and ensure smooth movement.
Store in a dry, ventilated place; avoid prolonged moisture exposure.
Can be stitched or tied to gambesons for secure, integrated use.

Note:

Each hauberk is handcrafted by skilled artisans, so minor variations in weave, rivet setting, or drape are natural and add to its handmade character.

With this 6 mm riveted short hauberk, you gain the perfect balance of historical accuracy, protection, and flexibility .
