Experience the world of knights and castles with this V-Face Chainmail Coif for Kids, modeled after the protective mail hoods worn by medieval warriors during the High Middle Ages. Its unique V-shaped facial opening not only offers comfort but also delivers an authentic medieval look perfect for young adventurers.
Crafted from 10 mm butted mild steel rings in a traditional 4-in-1 European weave, the coif is both lightweight and sturdy for costume use. The decorative dagged edging along the shoulders adds a touch of flair, making it stand out from plain mail designs.
The zinc-plated finish helps resist rust, ensuring easier maintenance, while the butted rings keep the weight manageable—ideal for children’s roleplay, medieval fairs, knight training, or educational events.
