Absolute Fencing offers the most protective, inexpensive masks for HEMA. We have been using these masks at South Coast Swords for over a decade, and they have consistently been both the safest and most reliable. Pair with an overlay for additional padding up top and protection for the back of your head and neck.

"Fauld" is a plate armor term for apron-style horizontal lames below the breastplate.  Our fauld is padded 350N fabric for both piercing and blunt force protection.

The heavy plastic clip assembly is much more secure than the metal rings that Spes uses on their fighting skirt.

Our standard size covers most adults, with an XL option for waists above 49", and a S option that will fit most children ages 7+.


Standard: waist size 32"-49"

XL: waist size 40"-58"
S: 25"-40"

As with other lynx fabric protection, custom colors are available.
