Royal soldier's chain mail
DescriptionFOR THE KING!
As a highly trained soldier of the King's Guard, you need the best armor to stand proud on Her Majesty's throne. Epic Armoury's Royal Soldier Chainmail is a flexible chainmail armor shirt made of steel rings held together with flat rivets. Each ring interlocks with four other rings in a 4-in-1 design. The mail covers the body from shoulder to thigh and has short sleeves that protect the upper arm. All edges are bound in leather except the bottom, and the shirt opens in the front with six leather straps with brass buckles that allow you to slide into your mail much more easily than if you had to slip it over your head. Expect this armor to last a long time as reenactment gear with proper care of the leather and metal.
The Royal Soldier's Mail is perfect for medieval soldiers and sergeants, as well as knights. Wear it over one of our gambesons for maximum comfort and authentic wear. Combine this armor with additional hardware and clothing from Epic Armory to suit your character's needs.
This product requires additional maintenance. Be sure to read the maintenance sections for this product before deciding to purchase.

Maintenance
Epic Armory Metalwork products should be treated with acid-free wax or quality vegetable oil and stored in a dry place. Metal armor containing leather parts would require separate leather care. Read the "Leather Belts and Accessories" section below for leather cleaning and maintenance with leather care products.
Degrease and prepare your armor for use
When you open your armor, you may be overwhelmed by the smell of grease and oil. The oil has been applied to protect your armor during storage and transport. Use a degreasing product or mineral spirits and a dry cloth or paper towels to remove all the oil from the plate armor pieces. It's a little more difficult to remove all the oil from chain mail links, but it can be done the same way. Wipe off as much as you can with a dry cloth, and with the remaining oil, you can degrease the chain mail with mineral spirits or another solvent by spraying it on the links. You can also choose to completely submerge your chain mail in a degreasing product and use your hands to agitate the metal in the solution; this will completely remove all the oil and grease from your links. After removing the oil, be sure to dry the armor thoroughly. Bright, warm sunlight is excellent for drying your armor, but you can also use a hair dryer or heat gun to speed up the process. Be careful not to overheat any piece of leather when using a heat gun.
Please note that the armor should not be washed with water. This can significantly increase the level of rust and corrosion your armor suffers.
Cleaning
Moisture is the enemy of armor and chain mail. If your armor gets wet, it's important to dry it thoroughly as soon as possible. After handling, use, or after six months of storage or display, all metal should be wiped with a clean cloth. Lightly oil the cleaned surface with a quality, acid-free vegetable oil. Alternatively, you can apply a coat of wax to the entire surface of the exposed metal. Let the wax dry for a couple of hours, then lightly buff it with a soft cloth.
Prevention and elimination of rust
Store your armor in a dry place and check it every two months for signs of rust. If you find any, remove it by gently rubbing the affected area with a mildly abrasive pad moistened with wax or quality acid-free vegetable oil. Epic Dark products are specially treated to resist rust, but should still be treated with oil and stored in a dry place.
Leather belts and accessories
Clean them by removing dirt with a stiff brush, then gently scrub with leather soap and a clean, damp cloth until the leather appears clean. Remove the soap with a separate damp cloth to clean any soap residue, and then use a dry cloth to wipe away any remaining water from the leather.
You should always condition leather after cleaning it, as the soap will have removed some of its natural oils. Treat the leather with mink oil, olive oil, or beeswax using a clean cloth, gently rubbing a small amount of oil or wax into the leather in circles. Let the leather soak in the oil before wiping it with a final clean cloth to remove any excess residue.
Note: This product requires additional maintenance of the seams between the leather straps and the chain mail, as the threading is subject to extreme wear. The thread will break over time and will need to be repaired. We only recommend purchasing this product if you are able to self-repair the sewn leather straps with buckles.
