    Has anyone ever been brave enough to wear chainmail underwear? 🤔

    Why are the arms so long? Were the sleeves rolled up, or attached to something?

      Not sure to be honest.

    Very stylish V-neck design, though that small hole on the left looks just about the size of an arrow, and does not inspire confidence. 8/10

      I don’t know the specifics of this piece, but 17th century is about the right time for the unpleasant and newfangled surprise of a bullet!

        Ah, that makes sense. Can’t really ask a hauberk to stop a bullet, not really its job.

Just a community for everyone to share artifacts, reconstructions, or replicas for the historically-inclined to admire!

Generally speaking, ruins should go to !historyruins@lemmy.world
