WTB - 13th Century Stuff
royalist89:
Thanks still a long way to go though! as for gambeson courtesey of Lord Danes links I'm making my own but the maille fits so well I cant wear a stay puff marshmellow man one underneath my maille and will have to go for light padding thin aketon instead.
Haha I know sounds cute but I don't know many lasses who would cuddle a oily metal mess :P
Sir Ulrich:
Nice maille you got, you're actually thinner than me, I do have a question where did you get it as it has the integrated mittens which is what I wanted but never ended up actually getting. What kind of rivets and rings is it? Wedge riveted or round riveted?
royalist89:
Aye I'm a bit wiry lol, only a 31' waist and a 37' chest!
Well funnily enough I've started my own business buying and suppling re-enactment stuff (rather than antiques which Is what I did before) and I got my supplier to make this one for me as a test trial, I'm very very happy with it.
Its 9mm round riveted steel rings with solid rings woven in, in a 4 in 1 pattern, still bloody heavy though

You probably haven't seen my "day of wrong" surcoat. Flannel with teddy-bears printed on it. I was "Sir Ted de Bear, of the Order of Saint Theodore" :)
