Product description
The scale armour is based upon fragments found in the Viking city of Birka and in Visby on Gotland. Shell and slat armour was employed from classical antiquity well into the Middle Ages. There are examples where scale armour was also utilised by the Vikings. This tradition may have been imported from the Byzantine Empire.
The scale armour may be worn separately or over chain mail. It can be easily repaired with loose parts and adjusted to size.
