Product description
The hauberk is crafted from 1,8 mm wide flat rings with an inner diameter of 8 mm. The rings are woven in a four-in-one pattern and subsequently riveted with wedge rivets. The hauberk has mid-length sleeves and reaches just over the hip.
Chainmail shirts such as these were worn from the second half of the 14th century. From this period, chainmail shirts and parts with wedge-shaped rivets increasingly replaced chainmail with round rivets.
This type of chainmail shirt was known as the haubergeon, a diminutive form of the longer chainmail hauberk. Haubergeons weighed less and offered greater freedom of movement. They were worn under armour until the 16th century.
It is available in sizes M, L and XL. The chest circumference is measured including a gambeson (subarmalis).
