Red Dragon HEMA light jacket

Made in the UK by Red Dragon, this padded HEMA jacket is intended for light sparring with single-handed weapons such as arming swords, rapiers, and sabers. It is from 350N rated heavy-duty cotton with an inner lining, and it's padded on the body, outer arms, and shoulders for protection. The back and inner arms are not padded, making this jacket quite a bit lighter than the heavy version. The padded collar features a blade catcher to help protect against stray thrusts that may go under the bib of a fencing mask. The back of the jacket features an adjustable webbing strap with velcro that allows it to be pulled in at the waist for a more streamlined fit.
