Medieval Chainmail Skirt – 6 mm 18 Gauge Flat Rings with Round Rivets & Alternate Flat Solid Rings

This handcrafted and assembled medieval chainmail skirt, is carefully crafted from 6mm 18 gauge flat rings secured with round rivets and reinforced with alternating flat solid rings. This authentic design offers both historical accuracy and battle-ready durability, making it the perfect addition to your reenactment or LARP kit.

The chainmail skirt provides essential protection for the thighs and hips while allowing free movement during combat or performance. Whether you’re a SCA fighter, LARP adventurer, Viking enthusiast, or collector of medieval armor, this chainmail skirt brings both functionality and authenticity to your medieval attire.

Available in sizes M, L, and XL, it can be worn comfortably over padded garments, tunics, or plate harnesses. Its timeless design ensures it fits seamlessly into Viking, knightly, or fantasy portrayals, making it a versatile choice for any warrior.

The use of 6 mm rings makes this chainmail skirt exceptionally strong and tightly woven compared to larger ring sizes. The smaller diameter not only enhances its protective capability against piercing and cutting blows but also gives it a denser, more authentic medieval appearance. This tight weave reduces gaps between rings, offering improved coverage and durability while still allowing enough flexibility for comfortable movement in battle or reenactments.

Care Instructions

• Keep your chainmail skirt dry when not in use to prevent rust.

• Apply a light coat of oil occasionally to maintain the metal finish.

• Store in a cool, dry place – preferably wrapped in cloth or kept in a breathable bag.

• For cleaning, gently wipe with a dry cloth after each use.

Note

Each chainmail skirt is hand-made by skilled artisans using traditional techniques. Slight variations in finish, ring alignment, or tone are natural, reflecting the authentic craftsmanship.
