Mild Steel Chainmail Coif for LARP

Chainmail Coif with 6mm Riveted Round Rings and Alternating Flat Solid Rings, 18 Gauge Mild Steel - Medieval Armor Hood for LARP, Cosplay, and Movie Costumes - Discontinued

This

riveted chainmail cap

It is made of

6mm inner diameter mild steel rings

which offer a dense, tight weave for excellent protection and an authentic medieval look. Each ring is

hand-riveted to 18-gauge steel

It balances durability with comfort. Finished in natural oiled steel, it not only resists rust but also reflects the appearance of mail armor of the period.

Made with the

4-in-1 European fabric

The most common historical style of chainmail. Each ring interlocks with four others, creating a strong yet flexible defense, capable of dispersing impacts across its entire surface. The 4-in-1 pattern was widely used in medieval Europe, ensuring both strength and mobility on the battlefield.

This cap provides ample coverage for the head, neck and shoulders, and is designed to be worn over a padded cap.

What really distinguishes this cap are its

6 mm inner diameter rings

making it denser and more protective than standard chain mail. The tighter weave not only increases historical accuracy but also provides great defense and a striking medieval look. This fine ring size was prized by knights and elite warriors, as it offered both strength and flexibility without much weight.

Measures

Inner diameter of the ring:

6 mm
