Theoretical jacket idea...

Ok so this is going to sound weird really really weird. As a hobby I weave chain mail (no not emails, the medieval armor) stainless steel rings 4-1 weave 14 gauge wire. Terrible vs impact but seems invincible vs abrasion couple that over a padded jacket (yes a short sleeve is 16lbs) and it seems like a good idea but this is an idea.

I have the supplies to make a full sleeve shirt large enough to wear over a jacket tightly and the supplies to make chain mail pants (those suck unless woven with care for sizing to the individual to prevent flapping loose bits) is this an idea I should start on in the non riding season?
