Our HEMA Light Sparring Jacket is designed specifically for HEMA practice and is constructed from a 350N rated heavy-duty cotton with an inner lining. The jacket features less padding than our HEMA Sparring Jacket and is better suited to single hand weapons such as rapier and Sabre. This jacket has no padding on the back as it is very rare to receive effective blows here - especially from rapiers and sabres. This has the effect of reducing the weight of the jacket whilst increasing the breathability. It also does not have padding on the inside of the arms reducing the weight further.
