Experience the exquisite craftsmanship of our Flat Ring Chainmail Half Haubergeon, designed for those who appreciate both functionality and historical authenticity. This exceptional piece of armor is a striking blend of practicality and aesthetic majesty, specifically tailored for knights and men-at-arms who seek to fortify their defenses while minimizing weight. Amidst the turbulent backdrop of the Quattrocento in Italy, where the artistry of warfare was evolving, this design emerged as a favored solution for protecting vulnerable areas of the plate armor without the encumbrance of a full chainmail shirt.
Crafted meticulously by hand, each component of this half haubergeon is made from 17-gauge mild steel rings with a diameter of approximately 9 mm. The precision riveting using wedge rivets ensures a robust and secure structure that can withstand the rigors of battle. What sets this armor apart is its unique configuration, where solid flat rings alternate with the chainmail rings, delivering ultimate strength and durability.

Imagine stepping into a themed gathering or a reenactment event, your presence commanding attention as you embody the spirit of the age, equipped with armor that tells a story of bravery and adventure.
Beyond its striking appearance, this half haubergeon offers an excellent practical edge in various conditions. The joined sleeves voiders provide essential protection to the arms, safeguarding against both strikes and environmental elements, making it an adaptable choice for reenactors who need reliable armor that accounts for movement.
