Stupid newbie question I hope someone kind person might suffer answering!
I was looking at the Chain Shirt armour (Armor for those who don't use the unnecessary "u")... I have a character who has a Proficiency in Medium Armour (a Cleric)... but when I put it on I see I a Disadvantage flag for Stealth. I tried to see why, or if I could offset this but I can't seem to find it. I found the rules in the PhB and they seem to suggest (as do a few posts in the forums here) that there isn't a disadvantage for Stealth to wearing this type of armour. I'm just wondering what I am missing (or to dull to find).

Thank you for your considerations!
It could be a bug or a glitch, but make sure you haven't put on chain mail by mistake. In 5e you can wear armor you aren't proficient in (with a whole bunch of penalties), so it may be you added the wrong item by mistake
