The revolution continues! Lobster v3.0 is our response to the expectations of the most demanding HEMA practitioners. The SPES heavy gloves, which revolutionized the market for sword fighting equipment, now have a new thumb. This means even greater versatility and efficiency during intense training sessions. The idea for this product is our original vision. The Lobster represents the pinnacle of achievement and an unparalleled standard created exclusively by SPES.
The Lobsters will perform exceptionally well in any case, regardless of your gender or level of advancement. They are designed to work with various types of swords, including longswords, Feders, as well as one- or two-handed simulators.
These gloves are not only stylish but also functional. The inner side of the hands is covered with black synthetic leather. All fingers are protected by plastic overlays connected using rivets and laces. The black cuff additionally features leather inserts. They fasten with adjustable straps at the wrists.
The key feature of this product is the remodeled, three-piece thumb, which has been specially designed from the base to the tip and on the sides to completely cover the finger. The gloves have been remodeled and adapted to the needs of HEMA practitioners so that the plastic elements completely overlap each other. The top element, the so-called shell, has been elongated and bent into the most ergonomic shape, covering the fingertips.
The cuffs with segments of faux leather and adjustable leather straps at the wrists ensure a perfect fit for the hands and guarantee that the gloves will stay in place even during the most intense training sessions. The cuff itself has been subtly modified, protecting the wrist at the point where the cuff joins the upper part of the glove. Additionally, the plastic elements are connected to it using new, more durable bindings - minimizing the likelihood of breakage during training. They won't break easily during HEMA sparring!
