| Oh. Okay.
Uh...can I have some of what you're smoking, anyway? 'Cause I don't have any cash right now, and my regular dealer says no money, no score, and...well...you know...

| Hey there Moses. New to the site. Tripplete fencing offers a pretty cheap black glove. It says it's for foil but I've used it for both epee and foil. Only problem it tends to stain your hand and your jacket (but not too much). Other than that it's a handy little glove. Here's the link: http://www.triplette.com/Arms/TCA_index.htm
Hope this helps! |

As for my colors, I don't have any. Between tuition and cycling stuff, I haven't had a lot of money left for equipment, aside from a sglove and sword. (Hoping to change that soon). If we can get any colour (roughly) jacket, can I get flames done? | I don't know about the mask, but Pro Printware will do custom stenciling on lame and uniform. Prices go up with number of colors and complexity of design involved, of course.
Cycling AND fencing, eh? That's quite a bag of change you gotta deal with. Those who complain about fencing equipment prices, they should check out the cycling version of "Adistar."  |

| I just had a thought. I wonder if designs on uniforms will progress like tattoos have. Some of the more edgy fencers will add designs to the back leg and arm. My son did some cool stuff with a swimming cap and climbing shoes. I wonder if he would.......... |

| There is somehting to be said for the traditional, crisp white uniform. Save for black mesh on mask, name in blue on back, company logos. Every company has right to advertise. Socks should be the key to identification of the fencer other than the name. I go with white, at practise where full uniform including socks are compulsory, but at tournement I go with sharp black socks.. It feels good to look clean and crisp at tournies. Feed the ego, feed the body, fence fence fence

| Red mask (LP), red socks (Under Armor), red lame (PBT) and red glove (All Star). Hence the sig line.

| Standard colors -- steel grey lamé/mask, various blue Uhlmann tags, blue and white Uhlmann glove, blue name/country code on back, blue name on rear leg, black adidas strips on shoes, otherwise white.
One exception is 2 maroon (uhm, I guess I'm calling them cherry now... :) ) stripes on (each of) my socks.
