ULF-RM-LH Roman Lorica Hamata Chainmail Riveted and Perforated 6mm

The Lorica Hamata was the standard mail armour worn by Roman legionaries, and this replica offers an authentic and durable design that faithfully reproduces the original mail armour. This armour includes a duplication of the shoulder made of the same material, with brass buttons and hooks, as well as a vegetable-tanned leather trim, ensuring durability and authenticity in its construction. Made from small, lightweight rings, this armour offers excellent protection without compromising mobility.

Characteristics of the Lorica Hamata:

• Historical Authenticity: This chainmail is made up of rings that are only 6mm in diameter, following the original Roman and Celtic designs. The armor is characterized by the combination of riveted rings and stamped rings, giving it superior strength while maintaining its lightness.
