shield that my father and I built
It's 140cm high, 60cm wide, and 1.5cm thick. We added rope to reinforce the edge, followed by leather. It's a bit heavy 7kg.

Did separate chain mail mittens exist in the end of the XIII century?
I see a lot of people using it but I can't find any sources. I saw separated mail coif but usually the mittens are integrated in the chain mail.

A question, I know that in the 13th century there were separate chain mail hoods and I thought foot soldiers wore them for more protection? Because I have never found sources that it was done.

Were there scabbards made entirely of leather in the Middle Ages? I know they were usually made of wood and then covered in leather. (XIII CENTURY)
