anyone have a Negrini FIE Uniform?

[El Chucko]

I am thinking of getting a Negrini FIE uniform. There aren't any reviews in equipment review section, so I thought maybe someone here could give me their thoughts on it.

Anyone?

I have one that I use for tournaments and I love it. The fit is great and quality is very high.

I have used Allstar and Ulhmann for over 25 years, but this one is much better. I can't comment on durability compared to those (I practice in a Ulhmann World Cup that is like a tank), but it is lighter and I wanted it that way for tournaments (the WC can be a bit much in the heat).

Some people think that Negrini is cut for skinny people, but I am not one of them (skinny people that is).

It seems noone has reviewed it yet, which really is a pity since the Product Review section is actually quite helpful at times.

I've got a Negrini FIE underarm that was given to me as a very generous gift, and I'm extremely please with it.

I should really put a review in there. I have a Negrini FIE kit and I absolutely love it. Fits well, breathes well, is comfortable and well made. Wearing it, I hardly realize that it's on and don't mind wearing it at all (compared to some of my other kits I've tried).

Due to a torn rotator cuff, I have to switch to left handed fencing, and not being able to use my Negrini jacket is a very, very sad thing. And I can't justify the price of getting a lefty Negrini jacket.

But oh, if I had the money, I'd get it. I don't think I can say enough good things about it.

I've got the plastron.

Its absolutely awesome.

I'm wondering if anyone's compared the Negrini kit to the Leon Paul Sydney?

I will soon have the plasteron too (had to send it back due to sizing issues). It felt much better than the Uhlmann one.

I've been toying with getting the entire uniform, but I can't decide between it and the Olympia. The only thing stopping me is durability issues, and that's only because I haven't seen any comments about it.

The Negrini FIE jacket is very durable. I have been using one for the last few years. (I bought it at a nationals in Texas I think) It fits well, is very light, and I am very pleased with it. 5 stars.

Have gone through two sets of complete uniforms (plastron, pants, jacket) over the years and am extremely pleased. Other people at my club have switched to Negrini and are just as happy. Looks great also!
