The lorica hamata was the typical chain mail shirt of the Roman legionary. It includes the double shoulder (collar part) shown, made of the same material with brass buttons and hooks and a leather trim. The leather is vegetable tanned. These shirts are characterized by their excellent workmanship.

The RM chain mail is made of rings with a diameter of just 6 mm. According to the original templates, it consists of a row of riveted rings (round rivet heads) and a row of perforated rings. Due to the extremely small diameter of the rings, these chain mails could be made then and now from steel with a material thickness of just 1 mm without losing their strength. This results in a weight reduction of approximately 30–35%. We abbreviate this type of braid RM (English = Roman mail ) because it was already very popular among the Celts and Romans (Hamata). This ring armor braid was in use throughout the Late Middle Ages.

Available in three sizes (m, l and xl).
