Half Sleeves Chainmail Shirt 9 mm Dome Riveted Rings 17 Gauge

This medieval chainmail half-sleeves shirt is made from 9 mm flat dome riveted rings alternated with flat solid rings, for superior durability and flexibility. With 17-gauge mild steel, it is suitable for both combat and long hours of wear.

The European 4-in-1 weave gives authentic medieval construction, with the alternating solid rings reducing stress on the riveted links. The half-sleeve design gives mobility, and freedom for wielding weapons and shields.

 The 9mm flat riveted and solid-ring weave was a premium construction method, combining enhanced strength with flexibility. As plate armor evolved, these shirts were often worn underneath or alongside plate for layered defense.

Note: Our chainmail is meticulously handcrafted, link by link, from thousands of interlinked rings, delivering exceptional historical accuracy, strength, and unmistakable artistry of traditional methods.
As each piece is assembled entirely by hand, you may occasionally notice a rivet that sits slightly proud, feels subtly looser than others, or even a missing ring. Such small variations are a natural hallmark of genuine, artisan-made mail, just as in the Middle Ages, and reflect the human care invested. Any adjustment, if desired, can be easily made using basic pliers and a spare ring, preserving both integrity and historical authenticity.
