HEMA Jacket “Challenger” 350N
Lightweight HEMA fencing jacket
Some like it hot. But a lot of fencers like it light. This jacket is primarily for people who use one-handed weapons: rapier, rapier and dagger, small sword, and dueling saber. If you’ve ever tried our “One Standard” jacket, this one is just one little layer lighter - the main difference is that the puncture-resistant fabric is on the outside, so we removed one layer of fabric.
The front part and sleeves have two layers of batting; other parts have one. This jacket was tested in a very intense environment of the Ukrainian HEMA scene, and while some find it suitable for longsword, it is excellent and unrestrictive for sabre and lighter weapons.
This jacket provides an amazing anatomical fit, great sleeve flexibility, a cool look, and tested functionality, so nothing will stop you from winning your next match.

Just tried this one in person and it is a very good jacket for everything but longsword (for LS it's fine if you don't like a lot of padding like myself) It is somewhere between AP light and officer, more dense than officer but not too much sicker. Good stuff, thank you Armstreet table crew for all your help and explanations. The 350Nr fabric is glossy and looks sturdy, considering buying it in black as my second jacket
