The Superior Fencing SF Charles de Blois HEMA Jacket 800N in medieval Brocade material

Today we take a look at the Superior Fencing SF Charles de Blois HEMA Jacket 800N in medieval Brocade material. This is a light to medium weight fencing jacket inspired by the Pourpoint of Charles de Blois.
From the website:
Comes in 800N certified puncture-resistant fabric. Upon request, it is also available in 350N certified puncture-resistant fabric for $144.
Interior pockets with removable foam protectors provide additional protection for the torso and arms. The advanced ventilation system, with mesh on the back, allows for excellent air circulation, reducing heat significantly during training.
It features a double-closure (velcro + zipper).
Mounting points for protectors.
Mid-thigh length.
Advanced 3D air mesh padding.
Micromesh moisture-wicking lining.

I've placed an order (jacket, gloves, etc.) with SF because of your (AHF) videos reviewing them over the years. All the small things related to paddings and the feel of a fit really helps when placing an order. 👍

I’m curious if you seen their YHF jacket and your thoughts? I’m also wondering about the size differences of SF and Spes?

Not sure about the central zip, doesn't appear fail-safe.
