FG Light 350N was created on the basis of FG 350N and solutions used during the production of AP Light Plus 350N. It has slightly different properties from its prototype, but still refers to historical gambesons from the 15th century with its appearance.

It is recommended for people training HEMA, regardless of their skills or advancement level. It is a very universal model that can become a base for creating light or heavy sparring sets. However, do not forget about additional overlays or plastrons, especially during the most intense sparrings.

The FG Light jacket is fastened with a zipper + velcro (so called double-closure). Blade catcher is attached to the collar, and the elbows with special straps for overlays attaching, e.g. Shell or PRO. Compared to other SPES jackets, the FG is longer.

This gambeson is made of 350N puncture resistant fabrics. A 3D spacer mesh was used for the production of the lining. Like the AP Light 350N, the FG jacket has pockets for additional foams (included with the jacket). They are modifiable: you can remove them, change their size or add additional cushioning layers.

An important feature of this jacket is its lower weight (the lowest among the FG family). Breathable construction and high level of hygroscopicity are other features of this unique gambeson. You won't lose your mobility during training! If you are looking for a longer, lighter and very comfortable jacket which covers the thighs, the FG Light 350N is a top choice!

  • foams included with the jacket
  • low weight
  • double-closure (velcro + zipper)
  • mounting points for overlays, e.g. Shell on the elbows
  • mid-thigh length

Main features:
- shape designed for high level of mobility
- zipper and Velcro fastening
- the length gives you the hips joints protection
- stronger and more resistant cotton fabric

The jacket is made of fabrics which have a 350N puncture resistance certificate.

Shell Material: Poliamide/Cotton
Filling Material: Polyester/Cotton
Lining Material: Polyester

Weight: 4lbs (2.4kg)

Standard sizing guide:
Expand chest when measuring. Add 1" (25mm) if you plan on using a chest plate.

SPES FG Gambeson Light 350N
Placed my order with custom measurements because standard sizes don't fit me well. PH Armory answered my questions about sizing and gave me good advice on which measurements were most important. The Gambeson arrived earlier than expected and fit very well. When I sparred in it the first time it was comfortable and did not restrict my movements. I would recommend it for anyone who struggles with ov

Quality made Gambeson
First Gambeson was a no go,way too short. Asked purpleheart heart for help, lady said " it looks like a good fit ". Not much help from them, however,I contacted Spes and they made correct size and shipped fairly quickly. Overall, very happy with New Gambeson. Note: make sure to allow extra length in torso for custom orders.

First time having a to size coat for HEMA. Fits well. Neck is a little tight. I cannot fit my gorget in it like my other one. Next time I'll get the neck loose so I can.

I really wish there had been a neck size customization point when I ordered my fully custom jacket. As it is, with the astronaut collar, my jacket is barely wearable -- if I hadn't gotten that on a lark, it would be completely unwearable.
