Description
These stainless steel chainmail leggings (chausses) are a strong and reliable upgrade for any medieval or knightly outfit. Made from 9 mm, 18-gauge flat rings, each round-riveted for strength, they offer excellent protection while staying flexible and comfortable to wear.
The use of stainless steel makes these leggings stand out from traditional mild steel versions. Stainless is naturally rust-resistant, which means less maintenance and no constant oiling. It also provides great durability and a clean, polished shine — perfect for reenactments, LARP, stage, or film use.
These leggings are fitted with thick 2 mm genuine leather straps, making them easy to secure to belts or arming garments while ensuring both comfort and stability during movement.
