SPES AP Light Fencing Womens Jacket 350N

Light HEMA jacket based on the popular "AP" 350N model.

Features include an overlap in the front, bladecatcher near neck.

"AP Light" is characterized by low weight, breathable construction, adjustable waist and extra pockets with foam (on shoulders, on front flap, and on sides).

This HEMA jacket is thinner than the regular "AP" but still made from 350N puncture resistance fabric. Its lining allows heat and moisture removal but also has the antibacterial function. On the sleeves you can find grips for additional elbow protectors.

Adjustable strap lets a wearer adjust the waist.
Cuts on back let the lower part of a clothing lay in freely and don't hinder movement.

Thanks to extra pockets for foams, the protection level of ribs, shoulders and front can be improved. This feature allows using this jacket in light historical fencing trainings, as well as tournament duels. (With extra protection)

NOTE! You can modify your HEMA jacket by way of embroidery.

When checking out using the Custom Size option, include your measurements (according to the Sizing chart in the adjacent tab) in the Comment section during checkout. Do not use punctuation and enter measurements in centimeters (it's made in Europe!) ALL MEASUREMENTS MUST BE INCLUDED.

To order in multi-color, enter letter designation with color choice in message box at checkout. Refer to this chart for: Color Chart

5 of 5 Excellent fit and range of movement November 3, 2023
Reviewer: Anonymous Person from N/A  
Excellent fit with great movement in the arms. The stiffness of the upper arm foam combined with the roomy underarm gusset results in the material protruding a bit when my shoulders are pulled back, but it doesn't affect how the rest of it sits and moves. It's also cut a bit long in the front, which means it kind of pushes into either the thigh or chin unless you're standing relatively straight - but admittedly it's not particularly a problem unless you're doing really deep lunges (or sitting). It's comfortable, not restrictive, and a very nice balance of light and protective.

5 of 5 Received Wrong Jacket January 18, 2023
Reviewer: Macayla W. from Plainwell, MI United States  
Honestly, I absolutely love my new jacket despite it not being the AP Light, but the AP Plus. I can understand the confusion because the sticker that was on the clear plastic that it came in was labeled AP Light Plus Women's jacket. Which from what I could tell, there isn't an AP Light Plus jacket sold on the website, just an AP Light or an AP Plus. So when I pulled it out and realized that it was not the same style Jacket as my boyfriends AP Light,  I was a little disappointed only for the fact that my jacket didn't have the fuzzy Velcro patch on the sleeves for the elbow guards I ordered with Velcro. So I ended up stitching some on myself, which was no big deal. But I just want to make sure others are aware to double check what they receive, especially since it took about 3 months to get the jackets in. I didn't exchange it since I was in a tournament 3 weeks after receiving the jacket. So all in all, great jacket and great quality, just not an AP Light.

5 of 5 Custom Fit Is Great November 17, 2022
Reviewer: Sara Hampton  
If you're wondering if custom sizing is worth it, it is. The chart is easy to follow, and the jacket fits like a dream. It also only took about a month from order for the jacket to come in, which was an added bonus. Only thing is, forearm protection is extra light so make sure you have a good set of forearm guards before you spar!
