Our HEMA Sparring Jacket by Red Dragon is designed for HEMA longsword and other heavy sparring and is constructed from a 350N rated heavy-duty cotton with an inner lining. The jacket is well padded to receive blows. This has the effect of reducing the weight of the jacket whilst increasing the breathability. The zipped front panel overlaps to provide a double-layer of protection against thrusts to the torso.This jacket also features an innovative built in gorget, designed to overlap the bib of a fencing mask to stop thrusts from travelling upwards from beneath the bib. The gorget features a padded plastic plate to protect the throat and adjustable Velcro straps that allow it to be attached either at the back of the collar or at the back of the shoulders. The gorget can also be worn under the bib of the mask if you so wish. The back of the jacket features an adjustable webbing strap with velcro attachment which allows it to be pulled in at the waist for a more streamlined fit.Sizing:Small - Sleeve Length: 21" (53cm) | Chest: 42" (106cm) | Waist: 38" (60cm) | Length: 23" (60cm) | Weight: 4.6 lbs (2086g)Medium - Sleeve Length: 22" (61cm) | Chest: 44" (112cm) | Waist: 40" (102cm) | Length: 24" (62cm) | Weight: 5.6 lbs (2530g)Large - Sleeve Length: 23" (58cm) | Chest: 48"(122cm) | Waist: 42"(110cm) | Length: 24"(61cm) | Weight: 5.7 lbs (2596g)X-Large - Sleeve Length: 23" (58.5cm) | Chest: 50"(126cm) | Waist: 44"(112cm) | Length: 26"(66cm) | Weight: 6.3 lbs (2860g)
