bike jersey like product at SN's?

I've heard that a vendor at summer nationals was selling a shirt for fencing simular in construction to a jersey worn by cyclists. Does anybody have information on this, such as a website for the company or contact information?

I don't know about any fencing specific supplier but I do like this stuff Much better than having a drenched undershirt after a lot of fencing.

I have some of the Under Armor shirts. I like the heat gear for wearing under my jacket. I love the comfort of the loose gear shirts but I find that the material snags on a lot of things. Check one out at your local sporting goods retailer.

It also depends on the outer uniform material, and what works for you... I have some of the underarmor stuff and some of the coolmax stuff, but don't use either when fencing foil, since I've found that the wicking properties increase the chance of saturating through to the lame, turning me into 100% target area. For an all-day foil event, I wear cotton t-shirts and change them several times.

I saw Blue Gauntlet selling "fencing shirts." They were just normal coolmax or polypropylene t-shirts with a BG tag.

I have a student with a shirt somewhat like this. It is very comfortable-looking and the material looks like it breathes. I saw a low-priced version at WalMart recently. It's form-fitting.

My local Galyan's sells UnderArmour, which is great but pricey.

However, if you wander up into the camping section, they have house-brand moisture-wicking t-shirts for about 1/2 the price.

Perhaps other sporting good chains (albeit ones large enough to have their own brand stuff) might do this too.
