| H.O.M. Fencing at Nationals! Well...not ME, but my Armor One gloves will be there!
Thanks to Craig, who just bought a supply for the F.net booth!
Colors are Blue or Red....changes and concerns noted and applied. HOM Glove review for Rick Shellhouse's review thread! |

| Cool. Is the "Armor One" the glove that I've been testing?
I'm liking it a LOT so far and am now using it as my primary glove.
It would be even cooler if the one at Nationals is even better  (Of course, then I would end up buying it twice... hmph. Is there a trade-in policy?) |

| Holly....yes to the model, although there are a few changes following the feedback I've been getting. I'd have to see the condition of the original glove befoer I did an exchange, but if it's in good shape, I don;t see why not...you'd have to go thorugh me, tho...I doubt Craig would be in a position to do so, since you bought the original glove from me.
Josh...I remember you! I COULD get orange ones, but it's have to be a 100 unit minimum order, since the only colors my maker has in constant stock are red, blue, white, and black...anything else means he'll have to dye the material. |

I'll update that when I get the new run in...the only visual differances will be moving the label to inside the cuff, and a different grip pattern (fiingers/heel of hand instead of the full palm version now.) |

I'm assuming that the orange wouldn't be a big hit, plus gloves get dirty and orange is a light color... I just got my FIE uniform so no more orange colored panels on the knickers but they surely will be passed down onto a lucky fencer next near so you never know... |
