| EXTRAS |
| The shirt at the top of the page is a very basic chain shirt, with no extras. Examples of 'extras' would be long sleeves, mid or long hem, edging in a different metal or metals, inlays, or a different pattern then standard european 4 in 1. The costs for these extras vary depending on the metal used, size of shirt, complexity of inlay or edging. Feel free to use your imagination when desinging a shirt, we enjoy making them! Remember that most of the metals listed on the jewelry page are not good to make a shirt from(too soft) but are excellent for edging and inlay.

| This shirt is galvanized steel, 14 gauge rings, 3/8". It has a mid length hem and short sleeves, and is edged in copper. Notice the horseman style split in the front and back, and the square neck line. Also, the sleeves on this shirt have been attached to the shirt with the pattern at a 90 degree angle. This means that the hem of the shirt and the end of the sleeve hang the same way. The picture in the center shows the seam where the sleeve joins the shirt. |
