Chainmail Hood - Alaric

Chainmail Hood - Alaric

Epic Armoury's new Alaric Chainmail Hood is a flexible mail armor coif made from linked steel rings. The mail covers the head, neck and shoulders. Each butted ring interlocks with four other rings in a 4-in-1 design.

The Alaric Chainmail is mail great for heavy medieval infantry and sergeants, as well as early knights. Wear it over one of our undercaps and add a Crusader, Norman or Spangen helmet on top for the most comfort and authentic wear. Pair this armor with additional Epic Armoury metal works and clothing to fit your character’s needs.

• Available in Steel Gray and Epic Dark colors
