Rectangle Base Maille Hoods are a traditional variation of the medieval coif, offering a snug fit with a rectangular base pattern. Designed to protect the head, neck, and shoulders, these hoods are made from butted or riveted rings in multiple finishes. Their distinctive cut ensures comfort and coverage, making them suitable for long hours of use during reenactments, SCA battles, or LARP performances. Our artisans handcraft each hood with attention to detail, ensuring both authenticity and durability. Available in steel, stainless steel, or aluminum, these hoods bring historical accuracy with practical use.
Rectangle chainmail hoods can be incorporated into a variety of medieval costumes and armor configurations. They are popular for historical reenactment, LARP, medieval festivals, theatrical productions, collectors, historical displays and themed events. Pair them with chainmail shirts, coifs, helmets and other medieval armor pieces to create a complete warrior or knight-inspired look.
