That's an awfully nerdy thing to say. For the record, I'm in America...

Are you saying we should go to Sweden and kick his a$$ or are you begging me to kick yours? I can only do one at a time.

If I went to Sweden, it wouldn't be to kick HER ***. There are plenty of other less violent things I would like to do with it...

Apology accepted.


I suppose my forum title doesn't imply anything, does it..?

I expect she meant the "Epeeist Hive QUEEN" part, not the creepy viking smurf.

I've used the Li-Ning's and Onitsuka Tiger Fencing LAs. Both were good. Both have worn out on inside of the back foot really quickly, but that's more a problem with my lunge (damn foot dragging). I like the Onitsuka ones a lot, good traction, good heel, good protection on the inside, just not enough for me. They also look awesome, I got them in white/silver/blue, though it's hard to find them in that color. They're a bit narrower than the li-ning's, not sure if that's good or bad. For now I've put off fencing with the tigers till I can sew some sort of leater into the inside of the back shoe so it doesn't fall apart in few months. Both price around ~60 dollars. The Tigers come in yellow/black and green/yellow, and those colors are easier to find than the white/silver/blue. You can find the full range mainly from euro sites, but then the price goes from ~60 to around 105, not much better than d'arts or somesuch. I've also now seen a model in white/silver/red.

Here's a picture

From way back in the discussion.....

Does anyone know where I can find Dunlop Volleys in the US? They look fantabulous and not at all like Converse's (I love Chucks, but I can't even walk in them anymore because they offer absolutely no support and there's no way to add insoles). Thanks!

davidwong will become famous soon enoughdavidwong will become famous soon enough
(1) Puma (2) Le Coq Sportif

(1) Anyone know anything about Puma's history re: fencing shoes? -- I saw a guy on the train wearing some -- the first time I've seen Puma fencing shoes -- I should have asked him the name of that model;

(2) Le Coq Sportif makes a shoe called "Escrime" -- is this a fencing shoe, or does it just carry a fencing name?
