Rattlesnake Mask Overlay: Enhanced Protection for Your Fencing Mask
The Rattlesnake overlay by Wukusi Armory provides additional protection for your fencing mask, including reinforced back-of-head coverage. Designed to fit most standard Olympic and HEMA masks, it is not compatible with models featuring extended backs, such as the PBT Warrior or Rear Guard.
The overlay’s unique texture not only enhances impact absorption but also allows for Velcro attachment. Many fighters enjoy customizing their Rattlesnake overlays with patches or decorations. This one-size-fits-all overlay features an adjustable back strap for a comfortable and secure fit.
Available exclusively in black, it requires minimal assembly before use.
Upgrade your mask to the next level with the Rattlesnake, ideal for intensive HEMA training or sparring.
Please note: mask sold separately.

Very good side and top protection. Back protection is good but would be good if it goes a bit lower or has the option to be slightly modified to fit better at the back of the neck. A bit too hot, but acceptable. The top is going a bit too high over the mask. Having to assemble it oneself when it comes is not much of a hassle but I just don't get why it's so. Recommend for training perhaps not for tournaments that much.

The service is excellent and friendly. The overlay is very nicely shaped and does work, but the quality is not excellent - the central seam is not symmetrical

Bought this because I saw very positive feedback online about it. It is very good indeed, it offers awesome protection and it is very light (about 750 grams). I tried taking some heavy blows on the head with a longsword and it perfectly distributed the impact, I just heard the loud whack of the hit, but barely felt anything. It also gives a lot of mobility when doing high blows (and coming from a Trinity overlay it is very appreciated, especially with longsword sparring). For the price, it is probably the only overlay I'd recommend. PROS - Very lightweight, given amount of protection - The combined soft/hard shell protects the head all around, distributes impacts very well - Offers great mobility - Great price CONS - Assembly is a bit complicated, not a big deal though - At first it is a bit tight fit, it tends to push the head forward - When lunging, visibility tends to be compromised on the top of the mask - back head protection is a bit stiff
