New model of the Axel Pettersson Fencing Jacket is a combination of wearing comfort with high level of protection. The design is based on the previous model (1.1), highly valued among the historical fencing devotees.
It is equipped with fasteners for an additional protection – detachable, specially shaped, plastic pads. It lets you use the jacket as a full protection without the necessity of wearing additional protectors. You save your time which you may have spent on training instead of wasting it preparing.
To increase the protection level the jacket has an additional layer of leather in front, attached with Velcro tapes. It improves the effectiveness of protection without lessening the wearing comfort. It is made of different layers : outer layer (made of durable cotton fabric), shock absorption layer and inside lining (same colour as outer).
The collar has also been changed, redesigned to make it more fit-to-shape of the body. We added an additional mounting for the leather front plate – a torso protector against the stubs. As in the previous model, the collar has a blade-catcher to keep the larynx safe.
Thanks to the new design, the Axel Pettersson Fencing Jacket PRO is perfect, comprehensive protection recommended to all historical fencing devotees. It offers a high level of protection along with very good wearing comfort letting users fully enjoy the fights and training.
The set includes: jacket, leather front and plastic pads (8 pcs).
