    Locating measurements for mask sizes

    Specifically, I am looking for measurements to assure that I purchase the correct size of Prieur mask. I searched their site, ans Zivkovich's site, and I did not see a page that indicates the exact measurements.

    I would say all masks sizes are the same, but I wear a small in Allstar and a medium in Uhlmann!

    Prieur masks have a reputation for being built like tanks however they also have a reputation for running a bit on the narrow side (which may be good if you have an oval-shaped head but not so good if you head is more round).

    You could try asking Zivkovich about sizing (Bran sometimes posts here), or even ask Prieur directly (escrime@prieur-sports.com). Or you can find someone who has a Prieur mask, ask if you may try it on, note what size it is using the chart previously referenced and adjust accordingly.

    Thanks for the advice. I'll email one of the vendors as I have time. Unfortunately, I live in a remote area and no one has a Prieur. In fact, I am not even fencing at this time!
