    Anyone ever heard of this supplier?

    Carmimari - Italian company, interesting website. They claim that their equipment is used by fencers like Milannolli and Randazzo.... Anyone ever heard of or ordered anything from this company? How is their stuff?

    If you are the Italian Team and there is a team armorer you will be using Carmimari equipment. In fact at the 1956 Olympics all Foil Fencers were using Carmimari equipment. It is good equipment, but it is usually pricier. The connectors are good, but they are much more difficult to work with. Most people in the United States, who like the connectors, opt for a Negrini or Italian Sport compatible connector.

    Thanks a lot for your feedback! I like their jackets, they are very light and breathable, similar to Soudet. As to prices, from what I saw on their website, if it is not cheaper, at least it is comparable with the allstars/uhllmans; and the FIE uniforms (don't know about other stuff) feel very nice. They are also the ones who did teh paintjob on Millanolli's famous mask and apparently take orders for professional mask painting. Veeery temting
    The website is www.carmimari.com
