Description

Details

The project of women’s Officer 350N HEMA jacket is based on classic historical outfits from the 19th-20th century period. The main inspiration for creating this unique gear was Alfred Hutton - one of the pioneers of HEMA.

Officer HEMA Jacket 350N is designed for light HEMA training, for fighters using the most elegant training simulators, e.g. sabre, rapier, kord etc. It will work for both beginners and advanced learners.

Officer 350N has an asymmetrical flap with a zipper and 9 silver snaps. The edge of the fold is decorated with a grey trim. This jacket is equipped with a blade-catcher.

This jacket is made of 350N puncture resistance fabrics. Among classy design, double fastening or bladecatcher, this jacket has drawstrings at the waist level on the back to provide better fit. Cushioning layers have been added on the arms and shoulders. Officer 350N sleeves are equipped with mountings, which allow you to mount additional overlays. e.g. Shell. This jacket has a wide overlap at the front with an additional inner mounting, which prevents sliding.

A breathable lining made of 3d mesh ensures heat and moisture transfer and great airflow, which definitely affects comfort of use. Thanks to all these features Officer 350N became one of the bestselling HEMA jackets from SPES. The greatest advantage of the Officer 350N is its very low weight, which gives a feeling of lightness and freedom during training.

What makes the Officer jacket so good?

  • design referring to other gear from RETRO line, like Cavalry Trousers 350N or Swordsman HEMA Gloves

Who was Alfred Hutton?

Hutton was a British officer of the so-called King’s Dragoon Guards, a writer, but most of all - a swordsman. Together with a group of friends he reborned the interest in historical martial arts in the 19th-20th century period.

Alfred Hutton practiced fencing from an early age. After finishing school, he focused on training with relatively new arms in that time, like saber, and studying historical treatises. In 1889 he published his first book on the subject (about military saber). Hutton was also known for correcting the fencing techniques on the stage of theater.

After his death, the literature about fencing collected by Hutton was donated to Victoria and Albert Museum in London.
