I just came across a very authentic geeky find, what it really reminds me of is Ultima Online, the online game which was based on the mid-eval renaissance period where players made and worn their own chainmails to battle against each other - funny!

This chainmail shirt is quite alike, it’s made from thousands of anodized aluminum rings, though it costs as much as $99, it probably gives you the genuine uncomfortable feeling of wearing a proper metal suit.

The traditional office warrior…

Here are some more info:

In case you weren’t aware, chain mail does not stretch. You cannot put it on one arm at a time like a fabric shirt. Instead lay the chain mail flat on the ground, bend over and thrust both arms into the bottom of the shirt. Work your hands through to the end of the sleeves and then begin to stand-up. Get your head through the neck hole and let the chain mail slide down your body. If you have long hair, make sure to tie up your hair before you wear the chain mail. Otherwise it could get tangled in your hair. You might feel a bit claustrophobic when first wearing the chain mail… but don’t worry you won’t get stuck. PLEASE wear a shirt or some other garment underneath the chain mail. The edges of the rings where they are joined together are a bit rough and can scratch you.

The Large size Chain Mail T-Shirt will fit people who wear standard T-Shirt sizes XL and XXL. The Medium size Chain Mail T-Shirt is for people who wear Small, Medium or Large standard T-Shirts. Both sizes are pretty forgiving. How long the shirt appears on you will depend on how chubby you are. For skinny people the shirt will hang rather long, while overweight folks will find that the shirt appears shorter because of the way the links spread out horizontally. Women can certainly wear the Chain Mail T-Shirt. We would recommend the Medium size unless you are a very large lady.
