Chainmaille in Print
Hello, Aislyn here. I'm Urban Maille's master maillesmith and designer and one of my favorite hobbies, since the 90s, is 3D graphics. This is the place where those two things come together; I'm building 3D chainmaille armor and printing it on clothing.
I build 3D chainmaille ring by ring, the same way I make chainmaille in real life, so everything is accurate, aspect ratios, drape, weightiness, orientation, all true to life except, sometimes, the material that the printed chainmaille appears to be made from. Many of the prints are real looking and appropriate for realistic chainmaille based costumes. Others are made of fantasy materials like light or water or shiny pink plastic and appropriate for fantasy costumes or just for fun.
Until quite recently, intricate all-over prints like these could only be done on synthetic fabrics, which meant they were appropriate only for costumes and those occasions when getting the look right is everything. But, thankfully, that has changed.
When I realized I can print on cotton now, I wiped out my entire line of chainmaille prints and started again. All of the pieces below are, at minimum, 95% cotton and printed with water-based pigment ink, That means these items can all be happily, healthily and comfortably worn as normal clothing! Even pajamas! I'm so happy! I've wanted this for so long.
I haven't found printable leggings in any natural fiber yet, so let me know if you see any prospects.
Meanwhile, please enjoy this beautiful, comfortable, cotton chainmaille clothing.
