HISTORICAL FENCING FOREARM GUARDS

Discover our SHORT HEMA FOREARM GUARDS, the essential medieval forearm protection for all historical fencing enthusiasts. With an optimised length of approximately 18 centimetres, these arm guards have been designed to offer maximum safety whilst preserving your agility, blending seamlessly with your modern combat outfit.

These forearm guards stand out thanks to their technical design, specifically tailored for European Historical Martial Arts. Their key features include a short silhouette that prevents any discomfort at the wrist, remarkable lightness so as not to weigh down your arms, and robustness capable of withstanding the blows delivered during your most dynamic bouts.

The structure of these arm guards is based on an extremely durable hard plastic shell, designed to absorb and disperse the energy of direct impacts. This outer shell is lined with comfortable technical padding, which ensures excellent shock absorption whilst preventing skin irritation during intense and prolonged exchanges on the training ground.

In everyday use, these guards are very easy to slip on over your fencing jacket, providing an extra layer of protection for your forearms. They are fully compatible with your combat gloves, particularly the KAIRN models or the Heavy Gloves Version II, thus creating a coherent, continuous and secure line of defence against the risk of injury during training.

The build quality of these SHORT HEMA FOREARM GUARDS is focused on durability and safety. The combination of high-strength plastic and internal padding provides a reliable defence against the rigours of combat, ensuring optimal longevity even with regular and intensive practice at your club.

These guards are ideal for historical fencing practitioners, whether beginners or experienced fencers, looking to complete their safety kit. They are particularly recommended for those who prioritise mobility and want guards that do not restrict their technique, whilst maintaining effective protection during sparring.

What truly sets these SHORT HEMA FOREARMS apart is their ergonomic design, specifically tailored for historical fencing practitioners. Unlike longer models, which often restrict the wrist, this optimised length guarantees complete freedom of movement, allowing for fluid parries and precise attacks without ever interfering with the mobility of your protective gloves.
