This mail tunic is forged from mild steel rings woven in the classic 4-in-1 pattern—balancing strength, flexibility, and true battlefield heritage. The armpits are reinforced with riveted mail, giving extra protection at key stress points where armour takes the hardest wear.

Constructed from 16-gauge wire with 10 mm butted links, this haubergeon offers dependable defence without sacrificing movement. Field repairs are straightforward—damaged rings can be swiftly replaced with spare steel links, keeping you ready for the next clash.

Mail has guarded warriors for over two millennia. Invented sometime in the mid-1st millennium BC, its exact origin remains uncertain. Many cultures adopted the craft, but the 1-to-4 link pattern—each ring joined to four others—became dominant across Europe. Vikings wore mail shirts into raids and shield-wall battles, trusting their interlocked rings to turn blades and axes. Centuries later, Crusader knights marched east in much the same defence, their mail hauberks layered beneath surcoats bearing the cross.
