"Ant" fencing gear roll top

Universal sports equipment duffel bag

There are sports that require close to zero equipment and there are sports that require quite a few, bulky things including. Some of those already have specialised bags to carry everything. Lucky they are! Just imagine a hockey or golf player trying to fit their equipment into a casual backpack or a duffel bag. And now let's talk about fencing. Not mentioning the weapon itself, you still need to have at least a mask, gloves and protective clothing. However quite often that's not enough. So let's add protection for knees, elbows, shoulders, shins and forearms. That is an impressive pile of gear! Too much for the casual backpack while still not worth commuting with the huge touristic one.

This roll top bag was designed as a part of the "Ant" modular system – by now it features three separate pieces which can be either combined in several different ways or used on their own. The way this bag fastens allows you easy size adjustment to the quantity of gear you have to carry to this particular practice or tournament. If there is not much to carry today – just roll the top until the content of the bag is tight enough not to bounce inside. Two big lateral pockets with zippers fit most standard shin and forearm guards while the main department has enough space for a mask, gambeson, footwear, gauntlets etc.

The War in Ukraine taught us a lot of things. Honestly most of those we'd better never know. But dealing with military equipment one naturally acquires sturdy Oxford6000 fabric, universal straps connection system and so on. Designed in collaboration with Bureviy, a company founded by Ukrainian HEMA fencers, this bag brings their military gear manufacture experience into the swordsmen world.
