Here we see mail with a pretty clear edging strip, worn over another garment which itself has pteruges on the arms and a thick hem of some sort. There looks to be a kind of drawstring arrangement (?) on the right hip as well. The sculptor's taken care to carve this in detail, and it certainly appears to show mail worn over a 'subarmalis'. I don't see how an 'integral liner' could produce this effect.
