  • SPES Imperial Light HEMA Jacket 350N

    This unique jacket is an alternative version of Imperial Jacket 350N. It was inspired by the Imperial Fleet uniform from one of the most popular movie sagas. With its length and design, this model refers to the Attila 350N jacket. More on the process of making our Imperial Jacket for HEMA you will find in our blog.

    Due to the lack of 350N fabric, we recommend this jacket only for lightsaber trainings or duels. Imperial Jacket Light is dedicated for male users of various skills.

    The Imperial Jacket Light, just like the 350N model, stands out with its design. It reaches the upper part of the thighs and has extra slits on the sides. It is fastened with a long belt. The sleeves are equipped with mounting for additional overlays. On the chest you can notice a velcro for additional application.

    This model has a double fastening: a zipper and a velcro. The velcro on the chest gives an option of adding various applications, like imperial military grade.

    Just like Officer 350N, Attila 350N, Imperial Jacket Light has a lining in the form of a distance mesh. On the front it has a wide flap with a spacious pocket for cushioning foam (included in the set).

    This model is one of the longest jackets from our assortment. Side slits ease the movement. In the waist it has a belt with a buckle, which is removable.

  • SPES AP PRO PLUS Jacket 350N

    The design of this jacket provides perfect cushioning during the most demanding HEMA training, like sparring with the use of a feder sword. However, outer overlays are detachable, so you can use this jacket also during less challenging training.

    This jacket is made from a fabric of 350N puncture resistance. On the front, there is a layer of black suede leather attached with velcros. AP PRO PLUS is fastened with a zipper and velcro (so-called double fastening). The collar is equipped with a blade catcher and the sleeves - with PRO overlays. The leather part on the front increases the level of cushioning, but also gives the jacket a characteristic look. The back is equipped with an adjustable strap for better fitting to the body shape. When it comes to the filling of the jacket, it has the same felt stuffing as the standard model. Mounting points for PRO overlays (attached to the set) are upgraded. Now they are similar to those from the NG line, but in black color. PRO overlays are also upgraded with a slightly modified, modern design.

    This jacket combines high durability with comfort of wearing. HEMA practitioners will surely appreciate such a combination. Despite the high level of cushioning, you will feel comfortable wearing the AP PRO PLUS 350N model, and your movement will remain fast and firm. The leather layer on the front does not decrease mobility. PRO overlays on the sleeves provide full cushioning - you won’t need additional gear for this jacket! This means more time for training instead of laborious preparation for it. The stuffing of this jacket is made of recycled fabrics, so AP PRO PLUS 350N is also economical.

    Inner fabric: 100% Polyester
