Hand Protection
HEMA and historical fencing put your hands closer to the action than almost any other body part, and glove needs vary widely depending on discipline, weapon, and contact level. Our Hand Protection collection covers three tiers: soft leather gloves for drilling and light-contact rapier work, padded fencing gloves built for cut-and-thrust and longsword sparring, and rigid gauntlets for full-contact and heavier weapon classes. Each product page specifies exactly which context it's suited for, so you can match protection level to your actual sparring intensity rather than guessing.
