These mail chausses/hoses are directly inspired by the type of protection worn by the knights and some sergeants in the 12th and 13th centuries. They appear for the first time on William ‘The Conquerer’ on the Bayeux Tapestry in 1066. By that time, it was a luxury and that’s not a hazard if only Duke William himself was wearing those chainmail hoses and many of the other Norman knights were not.
By the beginning of the 12th and 13th centuries, it was becoming standard equipment of a medieval knight perfectly completing the long sleeves and knee-length hauberk making the knight almost invulnerable.
The 16-gauge butted SPRING STEEL rings (9 mm diameter each) are stronger than the regular mild steel butted rings ensuring that your chausses will be long-lasting equipment, battle after battle. It comes in a single size that fits most. If you’re looking for even more strength, go for our riveted collection.
Note: This product is carefully coated with a layer of oil when packaged that acts as a temporary (protective) layer against corrosion (rust), which can easily be wiped off using any oil remover or even a dry cloth.
