The Roman Lorica Hamata is directly inspired by Celtic design as the Celts are the people that have been credited for the invention of chainmail. The Lorica Hamata that we decided to reconstruct here still keeps a lot of its Celtic original traits making it perfectly suitable equipment for Roman or Celtic cavalrymen or even legionary of Caesar during the Gallic wars or any similar legionary fighting of Hannibal’s armies during the Punic Wars. The sturdy 18-gauge MILD STEEL ROUND RINGS (diameter of approx. 9 mm), with alternating flat rings, are painstakingly DOME RIVETED by our skilled artisans. The intricately interlocked in a FOUR-IN-ONE pattern makes sure to buffer against striking attacks. It comes in medium, large, extra-large, and double extra-large sizes, making it easy for you to choose the perfect fit for yourself.
