L’origine esatta della cotta di maglia non è nota, ma i primi reperti furono scoperti nel IV secolo a. C. nella palude di Hjortspring nell’attuale Danimarca. Nel XII-XIII secolo si sviluppò come pezzo di armatura più importante in Europa. Questo modello di cotta è adatta a uomini con circonferenza del torace media ed è larga abbastanza per essere indossata sopra il gambeson. Ha maniche lunghe ed arriva approssimativamente fino alle ginocchia.

Chainmail shirts are a popular costume item for the portrayal of armoured characters. Unfortunately, though, some people's health does not allow them to bear the considerable weight of this kind of protective wear. That's why this chainmail shirt is made of lightweight aluminium. It is suitable for wearers of medium chest circumference. The shirt is wide enough to be worn on top of a gambeson jacket; it has long sleeves and will fall down to about the height of the wearer's knees. Every single one of the flat rings is riveted, so they may only be opened using tools or considerable force.
