BTW Haubergeon butted spring steel, ID8mm, natural

- Battle-Ready -

A haubergeon is a mid-sleeve chain maille shirt that reaches to the thighs. The word Haubergeon means 'little Hauberk'. In Europe this mail armour was already used by Romans and Celts but continued up through the 14th century, when plate armour began to replace it.

The BTW chain maille type:
This particular mesh is composed of butted rings made of high-quality spring steel. Considering its excellent value at a fair price,it is perfectly suitable for unexperienced re-enactors who set store on good protection and solid quality. The weave is 4 in 1. 
This type is called BTW (Butted Tensile Wire). 
Although the natural finish allows rust to develop, it also gives the weave a genuine appearance.

Our BTW-Haubergeons are available in four sizes (M, L, XL and XXL)

All measurements are taken fully stretched.
