Erenhill Leather Arm Guards – Pair of Archery Forearm Protectors

Erenhill Leather Arm Guards are a pair of traditional-style forearm protectors designed for archers who prefer leather equipment.

The package contains two individual arm guards made from chemically softened calf leather with stitched and riveted construction.

What does an archery arm guard do?

An arm guard is worn on the forearm to provide a protective layer between the bowstring, skin and clothing.

During the shot, incorrect elbow position, grip or loose clothing can bring the bowstring into contact with the forearm.

A leather arm guard can help reduce the effect of light contact and can also help keep loose sleeves away from the path of the string.

It does not replace correct shooting technique. Repeated bowstring strikes should be treated as a reason to check stance, grip, elbow position and bow setup.

One pair – two arm guards

The package contains one pair, or two individual pieces.

There is no dedicated right-handed or left-handed product version specified.

The asymmetric shape should instead be positioned correctly on the individual forearm so that the longer and shorter sections provide suitable coverage without limiting wrist or elbow movement.

Asymmetric design

Each arm guard has two different stated lengths:

• inner length: approximately 17.5 cm,
• outer length: approximately 22 cm.

The longer side provides extended forearm coverage, while the shorter section helps maintain freedom of movement.

Actual fit depends on the archer's forearm length, circumference and clothing.

Elastic fastening

The guards use an elastic fastening system.

The fastening should keep the guard securely in place without restricting blood circulation or natural hand movement.

A loose arm guard may rotate or move during shooting, while excessive tightening can cause pressure and discomfort.

Before shooting, check that no loose elastic section enters the bowstring path.

Chemically softened calf leather

The guards are made from chemically softened calf leather.

As leather is a natural material, small differences in grain, texture and shade may occur between individual pieces.

Regular use may gradually produce a natural patina.

Stitched and riveted construction

The leather construction combines stitching and rivets.

Before longer training sessions, inspect the stitching, rivets and elastic fastening. Metal parts should remain secure and free from sharp edges.

Traditional, 3D and mounted archery

The arm guards can be used for several forms of archery, including:

• traditional archery,
• instinctive archery,
• 3D archery,
• field archery,
• mounted archery,
• recreational shooting.

For dynamic or mounted use, it is especially important that the guards remain stable and do not interfere with the bow, reins, clothing or bowstring.

Care and storage

After shooting, remove sweat, dust and surface dirt with a soft cloth.

If the guards become wet, allow the two pieces to dry separately at room temperature. Avoid heaters, hot air and other intense heat sources that could damage the leather or elastic fastening.

Erenhill Brand

This pair of leather arm guards is offered under the Erenhill Brand.

The design combines traditional leather appearance, two-piece construction, asymmetric forearm coverage and elastic fastening.
