new feedback about duellist kit?

Okay, so I got into trouble last night for not wearing my knickers (actually, many of us did). I have a pair of knickers from Triplette but they are too long (the bottom cuffs are nearly to my ankles).

My jacket from Triplette is also too big (sleeves are way too long, the chest seems to be made for someone Very Well Endowed).

I'd picked up a cheap kit from Blade for friends who want to learn a bit to see if they wanted to take classes. The jacket in that kit fits much much better--but is quite stiff and is cotton. As an athlete, I wear sweat-wicking clothing and haven't been able to find any in fencing gear.

Today I ordered a jacket and knickers from Duellist that have sweat wicking technology and I'm wondering how the fit, durability, and comfort are?

A friend of mine has the new jacket and pants and he is quite happy with them. They fit very well on him, but he is a bit of a beanpole body type. I do not know how well they are with breathability or moisture absorption though. You should write up a review in the Product Reviews section once you have played with them a bit! I don't know to many fencers that have the Duelist kit.
