| I know a fencer with the green ones. I'd like to ask his opinion of them. The yellow would go with my current choice of fencing socks, but wouldn't allow me many options if I wanted to change sock color.
Also, I already have a pair of fencing shoes.

| What really gets me is the price. Especially when compared to the other fencing shoes on the market.
Ridiculous.

I think they "Onitsuka" just opened a store in Paris, I might check it out.
