This mail shirt is made from intimidating butted armor which has been blackened for moisture resistance. Reminiscent of the Black Prince, who purposefully let his mail darken to a blackish hue, this shirt features 16 gauge links combined in the "international" pattern. Common to all European mail, the international pattern utilizes 4 links through a 5th.
Faithfully copied from examples in museums and private collections, the diameter of each outer link is about 11.11 mm and the inner link diameter is about 9.52 mm. Mail shirts fit up to a 137 cm chest, 83 cm long shirt, sleeves are approximately 46 cm and hang to just below the elbows on average height warriors.
We recommend keeping this mail oiled at all times.
