Red Dragon – Padded Fencing Gloves

These padded sword fencing gloves from Red Dragon Armoury will protect the hand from scrapes and blisters during the repeated motions of drill and training. Crafted from leather and internally lined with fabric, they have light internal padding which allow them to be used for light sparring sparring as well (they are not padded heavily enough for full contact sparring however). These gloves are comfortable to wear during long sessions of drill and light sparring.
