Escudo Salamandra

The EVA foam is dense enough to actually block soft toy swords but still light for my 5-year-old to carry around the yard for hours. That fiery salamander design really catches the sunlight.

My 4-year-old refuses to put this down because the fire-pattern design makes him feel invincible. The EVA foam is so lightweight he can run around the yard holding it up for an hour without getting tired. It's taken a few tumbles on concrete without a single scratch, which sold me on the safety aspe

The foam is surprisingly sturdy yet flexible enough for my kids to swing around safely without damaging anything. The fiery salamander design looks even more impressive up close with great detail in the sculpt. It’s held up well to a week of backyard battles with the neighbor kids.
