More new items in stock in our shop! This time we have the Black Knight mitten gauntlets from HF Armory.

-----

Black Knight HEMA Gloves are plastic mitten gauntlets. These are the most protective model of gloves made by HF Armory. Sold as a pair.

They are designed for maximum protection when using them for longsword fencing, and a comfortable enough grip to use them with one-handed weapons without complex hilts (such as Polish sabre or arming sword).

The Black Knight HEMA Gloves are made from tough polypropylene with quilted inner padding. The palm is covered with leather for better grip. The outer plates are overlapped to give both mobility and protection for the hand. The plastic thumb is made from overlapping plate pieces, making a rigid frame to provides excellent protection for the thumb. The cuff plates are connected by laces to provide excellent mobility for the wrist.

Together, the pair weigh less than 1 kg.

New items in stock in our shop! Black Knight elbow protectors from HF Armory.

-----

Sold as a pair. These are elbow protectors with rondels, to protect the elbow joint from all sides. They have a conical shape so that some of the impact from strikes will be redirected away from the joint.

Each elbow protector fastens with a sturdy strap and buckle, and also has two separate ties (above and below the elbow) to help with fastening the protector to any mounting points present on your jacket.

The Black Knight elbow protectors by HF Armory are plastic arm protection for HEMA, LARP, SCA, and other kinds of non-Olympic fencing. They have the aesthetics of knightly plate amour from the latter part of the 14th century, and have been developed specially for HEMA fencing, based on many years of experience in HMB and other kinds of historical fencing.

Vytis gorgets back in stock!

Goodness. That took a while. They were supposed to be dispatched to us in October, to reach us by early November at the latest - but clearly that didn't happen.

But now they have arrived and we will be packaging up the pre-orders and getting them out to people as soon as possible.

https://www.academyofhistoricalarts.co.uk/shop/vytis-gorget/

We have also placed our next restocking order already, so that hopefully there won't be quite as much delay when we inevitably sell out of this batch.

Vytis Light Gorget — Academy of Historical Arts This is a protective, slim, and form-fitting gorget that is comfortable to wear while providing essential protection for the throat and neck.

--- Restocking Updates ---

https://www.academyofhistoricalarts.co.uk/shop/expected-restocking-dates/

Our new stock of Pahlavandles arrived quickly in late December.

Our delivery from Superior Fencing has arrived at last and we are currently getting the website updated with all the new things that came to us.

And our delivery of Vytis gorgets is expected to arrive tomorrow, FINALLY, after being held up in customs for almost 3 weeks. As soon as they arrive, we'll be packaging up all the pre-orders and will be getting them out to people!

Expected Restocking Dates — Academy of Historical Arts We often have restocking orders that our suppliers are in the process of fulfilling, although lead times cannot are not always accurate.
