Hard Shells - Full Arm

This set of rigid protectors covers the entire length of the arm like a true armor, providing superior protection against intense impacts. Easy to install and highly adaptable, this kit significantly enhances the security of any fencing jacket.

• Sold in pairs
• Designed and tested by high-level HEMA fencers
• Set of 4 pieces covering the entire arm
• Made of lightweight and rigid polyethylene for maximum durability
• Compatible with any HEMA jacket or gambeson thanks to strategically placed velcro straps

Composed of four distinct pieces, this kit ensures complete arm coverage, from shoulder to wrist. Each element is made of high-density polyethylene, a material known for its lightness and exceptional rigidity. This unique combination allows for maximum protection without compromising mobility, a crucial aspect in the practice of HEMA.

Adaptability and Custom Fit

One of the major strengths of this kit is its versatility. Thanks to an ingenious velcro fastening system, these protections can be easily installed on any HEMA jacket or gambeson, whether or not it is equipped with specific mounting points. This feature allows practitioners to significantly enhance the protection of their existing gear without the need to purchase a new jacket.

The modular design of the kit allows for precise adjustment to different body types. With an adjustment range from 54 to 70 cm in arm length, these protections fit most sizes. Additionally, the ability to separate the upper units (shoulder/arm) and lower units (elbow/forearm) offers extra flexibility for optimal placement and increased comfort.

Installation and Use

Installing the kit is simple and quick. The numerous velcro straps allow each piece to be securely fastened, ensuring stable support even during intense movements. For optimal stability, it is recommended to use the shoulder mounting points on the jacket, if available. This ensures consistent positioning of the protections throughout training or combat.

Strategic Overlap for Complete Protection

The protective plates are designed with intelligent overlapping, eliminating potential weak points. This feature ensures continuous coverage, even during the most dynamic movements, providing peace of mind to practitioners engaged in intense exchanges.
