"World Cup" / "Athens" FIE fencing knickers

These pants start out rather stiff but once you fence in them for a bit they become more comfortable. they are made of good material which looks as though it should last a long time, overal not a bad pair of knickers.

These are my first pair of FIE approved knickers, and my parents didn't want to buy the Olympia Knickers. I should've pushed harder, because these aren't very comfortable at all; they're too stiff (once they've warmed up a little they're a little better), and just kinda uncomfortable. I would recommend the Olympia breeches, my friend has them, and they seem to be better.

Overall the World Cup breeches aren't too bad, but I would pay the extra for the next model.

These are good knickers. Not Uhlmann/Allstar's top of the line, but a considerably better value. I've had mine for 4 1/2 years, the only complaints that I've had is that the suspenders are starting to show some wear and that the seam in the crotch has needed repair. The material wears well and I don't expect to need to replace them for years yet.

I like it, it fits really good. Also I like the suspenders, I practically don't feel them on my shoulders. The fabric is kinda stiff when I just put it on, but when it's warmed up it's great.

I've been buyinh Allstar Jackets and breeches since I started Fencing. I've been very pleased with their kit in the past however this particular product doesn't have any ... errr ... room. They are also a bit pricey. When I next update my kit I may have to buy another vendors.
