Some time ago we commissioned SPES Historical Fencing Gear to create prototypes of HEMA cloaks. We provided a historically accurate replica of the 17th century cloak to be used as the pattern.
The prototypes are made of 350N puncture resistance fabric and weigh about 1.3 kg (~3 lbs). They fly like galeon's sails and are both charming and deadly. (Please do remember that choking your opponents with cloaks is strictly forbidden during our tournaments.)
Feel free to drop by if you would like to try out our Rebel cloaks. We highly recommend them and hope they will become a regular SPES product!
Below can be found a video of some of our cloak and rapier shenanigans. Enjoy! 😃
