A half-sleeve aluminum chainmail shirt is a piece of armor or historical attire made by linking individual aluminum rings to create a mesh. This type of shirt covers the upper body and has short sleeves extending to about mid-bicep. Aluminum chainmail is favored for its lightweight properties, making it easier to wear for long periods compared to traditional steel chainmail, while still maintaining the iconic look of chainmail armor.<\/p>\n
### Key Features:

Be it in the legendary Viking wars or even the so-called \u201cdecisive\u201d Battle of Hastings, knights and warriors always needed the highest form of protection; and when you reenact these wars, you have to make sure that you do too! This chainmail haubergeon will be just the fit for that!<\/p>\n
This haubergeon utilizes a unique mail constructed of 14 gauge aluminium round rings, 10mm diameter, alternating with rubber solid rings. This method yields an extremely lightweight yet durable shirt for use where ease of wear is important. The material is very forgiving of the size and shape of the wearer, conforming naturally to the body; the elasticity allows for unrestricted movement. The combination of comfort and great looks makes this a preferred mail type for theater, costume and movie productions, making it durable enough for LARP as well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":19182,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[94],"product_tag":[309,311,307,310,304,306,308,305],"class_list":{"0":"post-19154","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-chainmail","7":"product_tag-historical-reenactment-armor","8":"product_tag-lamellar-armor-features","9":"product_tag-larp-armor","10":"product_tag-leather-armor","11":"product_tag-leather-lamellar-armor","12":"product_tag-medieval-armor-replica","13":"product_tag-renaissance-fair-armor","14":"product_tag-tesset-black-armor","16":"first","17":"instock","18":"taxable","19":"shipping-taxable","20":"purchasable","21":"product-type-simple"},"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kamsee.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/19154","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kamsee.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kamsee.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kamsee.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=19154"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/kamsee.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/19154\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":19187,"href":"https:\/\/kamsee.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/19154\/revisions\/19187"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kamsee.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/19182"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kamsee.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=19154"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kamsee.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=19154"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kamsee.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=19154"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kamsee.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=19154"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
