A pair of chainmail sleeves with partial chest most appropriate for a late 14th century to 15th century armour harness. Used with plate armour mail sleeves and gussets are sewn onto an arming doublet or gambeson to protect the arm pits and arms which are not covered by plate.
The use of sleeves under plate armour instead of full mail hauberks reduced the weight of the armour harness and added to greater mobility
Made from flat 9 mm 17 gauge rings which are round rivetted.
This is a medium / Large size.
Please note, butted rings shown in photo.
