So I've been looking for some relatively inexpensive riveted hauberks and I came across this. http://allbeststuff.com/c-medieval-chainmail-...ille-Small
What do you guys think? I'm not looking for a top quality hauberk, just something that could withstand a few blows and not fall apart on me. I also heard that tube shaped hauberks not very comfortable, so I'd like to know if that's not the case with this one if any of you actually have it.

This hauberk looks great. It´s quite suitable for reenactment and for weapon practicing.

2nded, but just bear in mind the ring size is quite big which limits period suitability.
