Shoulder & Arm Guards PRO

The "PRO Set" from SPES addresses a critical need for HEMA practitioners: how to significantly enhance the protection of a jacket without having to replace it? These rigid plastic shells (Polypropylene) act as a true additional armor, targeting the most exposed areas during longsword or saber assaults: the shoulder joint and the upper arm.

Technical Design and Mobility Unlike generic protections, these shells have been specifically molded for historical fencing. Their curvature follows the natural movement of the arm, ensuring that the protection stays in place even during high guards (Ochs, Vom Tag). The chosen material, a high-impact resistant PP plastic, absorbs the kinetic energy from thrusts and cuts, thus extending the lifespan of your jacket's fabric.

Installation and Compatibility This system is natively compatible with all SPES jackets equipped with "PRO" anchor points (notably the AP Next Generation and Hussar models). The attachment is done via robust elastic bands that connect directly to the jacket, ensuring perfect stability: the shells do not "float" during combat. Note: For standard jackets without anchor points, a sewing modification (adding loops) will be necessary for installation.

In summary, it is the essential extension for transitioning from light technical practice to intense sparring or competition, without sacrificing your comfort.
