Description
This fencing jacket was designed with the help and suggestions of Axel Pettersson, to serve the needs of the Swedish schools of historical fencing (“Gothenburg Historical Fencing School” in particular). The jacket closes in front (see the picture) with the help of a zipper and velcro. On the front of the collar, there is a broad overlap which closes with velcro. The sleeves are specially designed for better arm movement. Also, there are additional protective layers on the chest, shoulders and elbows. The layers of fabric (from the outside) are: 1 layer of cotton, one protective layer, and 1 layer of lining. The jacket was tested at many seminars as well as one in Helsinki on 9-11.08.2011 lead by Axel Pettersson.
The jacket is made of fabrics which have a 350N puncture resistance certificate.
The jacket is available in three standard colours: black, red and white.
Custom colours are also available for 15€ surcharge which you can choose from our palette of colours.
