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.

A pic of a glove from the first run (the one Holly Ordway has) is on the front page of my website http://www.homfencing.com

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.)

Hehe, no need for orange... 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...

Yea I guess winning the national championship and owning FSU in nearly every sport for the last two years justifies sucking..
