Questions about the product Red Dragon Lightweight HEMA Jacket 350N

Does the Red Dragon Lightweight HEMA Jacket 350N offer sufficient protection for longsword sparring despite its reduced weight and increased breathability, or is it designed more for lighter weapons such as rapiers and sabers?

The Red Dragon Lightweight HEMA Jacket 350N, with its reduced padding, is primarily designed for lighter one-handed weapons like rapiers and sabres. While the lighter weight and lack of padding in certain areas significantly improve breathability and freedom of movement, it offers less protection for intense longsword sparring than the standard HEMA sparring jacket. Therefore, it is especially recommended for fencers who train with lighter weapons or who prioritize particularly lightweight equipment.
What materials is the Red Dragon Lightweight HEMA Jacket 350N made of, and what special design features, such as a blade catcher or adjustment options, does it offer to increase safety and fit?

The Red Dragon Lightweight HEMA Jacket 350N is made of durable cotton with a tensile strength of 350N and features a protective lining. For increased safety, the padded collar is equipped with an integrated blade catcher to prevent punctures under the bib of the fencing mask. For an optimal fit, the jacket has an adjustable webbing strap with a hook-and-loop fastener at the back, allowing for a customized fit at the waist.
What specific care and cleaning instructions should be followed for the Red Dragon Lightweight HEMA Jacket 350N to maintain the protective properties of the 350N fabric in the long term, and is the jacket suitable for washing machine cleaning?

The Red Dragon Lightweight HEMA Jacket 350N should preferably be cleaned by hand or on a gentle cycle in the washing machine at a maximum of 30 degrees Celsius without spinning. To protect the fabric, avoid using fabric softener and never tumble dry or iron the jacket. It is recommended to hang the jacket to dry after washing or training and not to store it crumpled; additionally, the inside can be disinfected with an alcohol-water mixture (e.g., vodka).
What adjustment options does the Red Dragon Lightweight HEMA Jacket 350N offer at the back to customize the fit, and how does the lack of padding in this area affect the weight and breathability?

The Red Dragon Lightweight HEMA Jacket 350N features an adjustable webbing strap with a hook-and-loop closure at the back, allowing you to cinch the jacket at the waist for an optimal fit. The absence of padding in the back and on the inner arms significantly reduces the jacket's overall weight while simultaneously improving breathability and allowing for greater freedom of movement.
