WMA swordplay hardened pauldrons

Lightweight shoulder protection for fencing

In the realm of various swordplay formats, be it tournament rebated steel fencing, HEMA harnischfechten, or SCA heavy, some common requirements remain: reliable, lightweight, and comfortable shoulder protection is among those. We noticed a significant demand for simple and functional gear for vital joints that will not restrict movements or be heavy. And we decided it was a sign, prompting us to embark on a quest to create the ideal equipment for diverse sword-fighting disciplines.

The shoulder protection, a versatile addition to our product line, is designed to complement elbow and knee cops of the same series. As we advanced in the craft of working with hardened spring steel, we mastered the art of creating impeccable shapes with flawless surfaces, employing various finishing techniques. Tested by fellow sword-fencers, these shoulder guards feature a secure fastening system of the attachment holes. Lace them up tight to your under-armor padding to ensure the pauldrons stay firmly in place during intense combat. They have an ergonomic design which allows for uninhibited swordplay, so you can finally focus on your techniques without distractions from your protective gear. Moreover, as HEMA/WMA clubs transition to steel protection, these shoulder guards seamlessly integrate into the life of a fencer used to plastic protection. Embrace the confidence of having reliable pauldrons as you wield your sword skillfully and precisely.
