Description
The Red Dragon Rapier Gloves are crafted to shield your hands from the common blisters, scrapes, and abrasions encountered during sword drills. These gloves feature light padding that cushions minor impacts while practicing, though they are not intended for full-contact sparring. Constructed from supple leather, they provide a balance of comfort and dexterity essential for wielding a rapier effectively. Available in four sizes, they serve well not only for Historical European Martial Arts (HEMA) training but also as authentic additions to your Medieval or Renaissance attire.
